The Uttar Pradesh government has announced plans to provide specialist doctor consultations at Community Health Centers (CHCs) across the state under the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model. The initiative, slated for launch in the 2025-26 financial year aims to enhance healthcare accessibility.

Medical Dialogues had previously reported that to strengthen telemedicine services in the state, the Uttar Pradesh government is planning to introduce a scheme under which people, especially those living in far-flung areas, can seek medical consultations by simply dialling a number. Under the scheme, the state is being divided into five clusters and control rooms will be established in five prominent cities, Health Minister Sidhartha Nath Singh said here.

In a shocking move, the Medical Education Department in Rajasthan decreased the number of senior resident positions at SMS Medical College. Even though the institute has altogether 318 approved posts for senior residency, it has now been decreased to 139 senior resident positions.

The matter came to light after the State Medical Education Department on Thursday released the details for senior resident counselling after the results of the Postgraduate Medical Exam were released.
