Changing Medical Ethics in changing medical times?
It is ok to take small notepads and pens from pharma reps? Is it ok to attend conferences where tickets come from pharma? What about medical device firms organising trainings? Is that allowed? Can doctors become speakers in pharma sponsored webinars?
The way that healthcare is delivered is evolving, and so are the ethical standards that apply to it.
So much so that the National Medical Commission had to issue a new draft of Code of Medical Ethics, aimed at revising the code of ethics that are currently in place
So, in today's health perspectives episode, Dr. Jayesh Lele, Former Vice President of the Indian Medical Association (2022–2023) and Former DGHS and member BoG MCI chairman Prof. R. K. Srivastava (MS [orthopedic], DNB[PMR]) join us for a more in-depth discussion on this whats the need of the hour when it comes to Medical Ethics.
