PG Medical Fees Vary Across States, Private Seat Fee Norms Subjudice: MoS Health - Video

While addressing concerns about the high cost of NEET PG 2025 admissions and whether most vacant seats are in private medical colleges where fees run into crores and are unaffordable for many students, the Union Health Ministry informed Parliament that the fee structure for medical courses in government and private colleges varies across States and is decided by the respective State Fee Regulatory Authorities.

Minister of State for Health Anupriya Patel stated that the fees in government medical colleges are kept lower so that more students can afford them. She also said that the government issued guidelines to decide fees and other charges for 50% of seats in private medical colleges and deemed universities under the National Medical Commission Act, 2019. These guidelines were released by the National Medical Commission on February 3, 2022. However, these rules have been challenged in different courts, and the matter is still pending.
