Not equivalent to MBBS in India: NMC decision on course in Philippines - Video
|
Overview
In a major setback for Foreign Medical Education in the Philippines, National Medical Commission (NMC) has refused to account for the two-year BS course towards the required minimum duration of a foreign medical course to be considered equivalent to the domestic MBBS course.
In doing so, the apex medical regulator NMC clarified that BS and MD courses offered at Phillipines medical colleges are two different things and that since the pattern of BS course being taught prior to the MD course is very much in line with the module of the Class 11th & 12th in India hence, it may not be included in the required MBBS course duration for the countries where the duration is less than 54 months.
