The office of the secretary of the National Medical Commission (NMC) has written a letter to all government and private medical colleges to inform them that the commission intends to implement Aadhaar Enabled Biometric Attendance System (AEBAS) and Hospital Management System (HMS) in all medical colleges during August 2022.
It has also been decided to install 25 cameras in each medical college along with sharing of live video feed with the Command and Control Center (CCC) of the commission during August 2022.
"It is requested that Nodal officer of the medical college to be nominated to implement above IT projects immediately," reads the letter.
"Implementation of Biometric Attendance System can be used as an effective and convenient digital solution to recording the attendance of faculties, senior residents and tutors of Medical Colleges. Therefore, NMC intends to implement the Aadhaar Enabled Biometric Attendance System (AEBAS) developed by the National Informatics Center (NIC) in all government and private medical colleges," added the letter.
Hospital Management System
NMC has further considered the implementation of the Hospital Management System (HMS) in all medical colleges for patient load monitoring and other parameters at hospitals attached to medical colleges. E-hospital software has been developed by NIC which is already running in a large number of hospitals including major government hospitals such as AIIMS Delhi, Safdarjung Hospital, and Dr RML Hospital.
The commission also intends to collect information with regards to the biometric attendance system available at the college and HMS currently available for medical colleges & hospitals. For this purpose, a Google form (https://bit.ly/3zM1qGH) is to be filled by 04 PM on Aug 3, 2022, without fail. The commission will be making a Whatsapp/Telegram group of deans/principals and nodal officers appointed by the MCs for FAMS (AEBAS) and HMS named ‘NMC DMMP-Dean/Principals’ and ‘NMC DMMP-MCs Nodal Officers’ for faster and better communication and coordination. It is requested to not exit that group and download Whatsapp/Telegram app on mobiles, added the letter.
