MCC to provide one-year provisional recognition to all PG medical courses

MCC has asked all state medical councils to register all NMC permitted PG courses and PG students who have passed during the academic year 2020-21 as it decided to provide one-year special recognition to all postgraduate courses.

Medical Council Commission (MCC) has asked all the state medical councils to register all the National Medical Commission (NMC) recognised PG medical courses and PG students who have passed during the academic session 2020-21 as it has decided to offer one-year special recognition to all postgraduate courses. 

MCC has taken this decision due to the ongoing Covid 19 pandemic so that students do not face any problems while registering their additional qualifications.

MCC has released an official statement that reads, “In view of the COVID Pandemic, the system of physical inspection at the time of examination could not be followed as prescribed by the regulation and therefore, the process of recognition of new PG courses, recognition against the increased intake of PG courses and renewal of recognition of PG courses could not be completed.“

“Keeping in view of the extraordinary situation arising out of COVID Pandemic, Postgraduate Medical Education Board (PGMEB) and Medical Assessment & Rating Board (MARB) has decided to provide One year provisional recognition to all the PG courses which includes Broad and Super-Specialty courses for academic year 2020-21, so that the Postgraduate Medical students do not face any difficulty while registering their additional qualification with the registering authorities,” the statement added.
