MBBS Fee Issue at DY Patil Medical College: NMC tells DME to Expedite Investigation
The National Medical Commission (NMC) has asked the Directorate of Medical Education (DME), Maharashtra, to expedite its investigation into allegations of MBBS fee overcharging by DY Patil Medical College.
Writing to the Director of DME, the Undergraduate Medical Education Board (UGMEB) of NMC has further requested the DME to send a compliance report immediately to the Commission for taking necessary action.
Medical Dialogues had earlier reported that after receiving numerous complaints/grievances from students alleging that D Y Patil Medical College Hospital and Research Centre was collecting MBBS fees for 5 years instead of 4.5 years, the Undergraduate Medical Education Board (UGMEB) of NMC asked the Directorate of Medical Education (DME), Maharashtra to investigate the matter and take proper action, if required. DME Maharashtra had been directed to clarify if any medical college in Maharashtra is charging full fees for the 5th year instead of charging only for 4.5 years, the duration of the MBBS course.
