"Recently, six specialties have been accredited by NBE in new GMCs with an approval of 12 seats. Two seats have been granted by NBE to new GMC Doda in the department of Pediatrics.

"DNB (Diplomate of National Board) courses have been introduced in the District Hospitals and new Govt. Medical Colleges besides old GMCs and SKIMS in order to strengthen the institutions, decongest the Govt. Medical Colleges and to address the shortage of specialists in the UT of J&K," he said.

"Under the dynamic leadership and concerted efforts of Atal Dulloo, Additional Chief Secretary, H&ME Department and Yasin Choudhary, Mission Director, NHM, J&K, 08 District Hospitals and all GMCs/ SKIMS had applied for DNB courses to NBE and a total of 129 applications were submitted by the institutions, out of which 26 applications of old GMCs/ SKIMS, 10 applications of new GMCs and 3 applications of DHs have been approved by National Board of Examinations and a total of 81 seats have been granted to the accredited departments consequent to the concerted efforts and hard work of teams of the institutions. Moreover, 31 more departments of DHs/ GMCs have been assessed by NBE and their accreditation is awaited," he said.

"For meeting the IPHS norms of Govt. of India in DNB Districts, NHM J&K has got additional sanction of Staff Nurses for DNB institutions and currently 42 additional nurses have also been provided to each District Hospital implementing DNB programme. Additional Beds along with the accessories and monitors have been provided to these District Hospitals by National Health Mission, Govt. of India has also approved establishment of 08 bedded Hybrid ICU in each DNB District Hospital," he added.

He said these measures are expected to drastically improve the health care services in the far flung districts and will improve the services in the tertiary care institutions as well. This is also expected to markedly bring down the referral from the far flung districts to the already overburdened tertiary care institutes of the UT of J&K.
