License Renewal Exam, Mandatory For Medical Degree Holders



From now onward, the doctors with MBBS and MD degrees have to appear for re-validation exam in every three to five years. According to sources close to Health Minister, this re-validation exercise will be implemented from the beginning of next year by the Union Health Ministry as this is a part of a slew of health sector reforms.
As per the plan, it will be implemented for CGHS and ESI first followed by all doctors. The government has sought for IMA views on the matter. Eliminating quacks has been told as one of its objectives.
