MCI to revise its norms for new medical colleges
New Delhi: Medical Council of India (MCI) regulations on minimum standard requirement for medical colleges will be revised for 50/100/150 MBBS admissions as directed by the Government.
As per Mrs. Panabaka Lakshmi, Minister of State for Health & Family Welfare, "Repose has been given in the form of land requirement standard for campus, bed strength and indoor occupancy in the states where National Rural Health Mission (NRHM) is operational like Northern Eastern states, Hill Stations and Hilly districts in other states for opening of medical colleges."
"The standard bed strength for indoor bed occupancy has been revised to 60% in these areas and in the teaching hospitals the bed strength has been reduced to 250 instead of 300 beds as compared to other parts of the country."
This will lead to opening up of new medical colleges in unprivileged and underprivileged areas of the country apart from producing more doctors in the nation.
Sixty-Eight proposals have been sent by the Ministry for the establishment of new medical colleges in the year of 2009-10, for their technical assessment and suggestions as per the provisions of the MCI regulations.
The last date for grant of permission by Central Government will be 15th July of every year as per the time schedule prescribed in the MCI regulations
