Verifying the authenticity of our medical professionals is a critical priority.
Great initiative by the Council, this will help us to know better about the healthcare medical practitioner, and how we are being treated. There are many cases of fake MBBS certificates being registered. This will be a game-changer in the medical field.
Thatâs great! It is necessary to do because mainly in rural and urban areas, many without an MBBS degree will keep one clinic and say, âWe are doctors.â So, a fake doctor system can be avoided with a QR code-based system. Know your doctor!
The QR code system is a smart and necessary step to tackle fake doctors. It adds transparency and makes it easier for patients to verify a doctorâs credentials, especially in rural areas where such risks are higher. If implemented well, it can greatly improve trust in the healthcare system.
This is a smart and much-needed move!
Making QR code verification mandatory can really help tackle the issue of fake doctors, especially in rural areas where people may not always know how to verify a medical professionalâs credentials. It puts power in the hands of patients. Anyone can scan and check if their doctor is legit.
It may not solve everything overnight, but itâs definitely a strong step toward transparency and trust in healthcare.
This is actually a great step by the Maharashtra Medical Council. There have been way too many cases where people pretend to be doctors using fake certificates, and it ends up seriously harming others.
I remember hearing about a woman who posed as a doctor and did a hair transplant and the person didnât survive. Itâs scary.
Having a QR code system to verify a doctorâs credentials can really help, especially in rural areas where itâs easier for fake practitioners to slip through.
Itâs definitely something that can build more trust and keep people safer.
Yes ,it will definitely help the common man by scanning the QR with phone and to find out whether the doctor is well qualified and registered with the medical council of state or centralized system.
In rural areas it will be more useful and the young people in the rural area should be well aware and stop their elders by going to the fake doctors cause their are some many cases we found in rural part of India of being treated by a non qualified doctor.
I think this is a very wise and beneficial implementation by the Indian government. This is a step in the right direction towards maintaining ethics and decorum in the medical field, registrations will ensure doctors and medical practitioners are kept in check.
Itâs very impressive initiative to reduce scams and people loosing their money, along with the patients receiving treatment from authentic doctors.
This is a big step in patient safety as the QR code system will help patients to recognize fake doctors in an efficient way. This technology based solution will build more trust in healthcare while reducing medical fraud.
The code will help patients and citizens check the authenticity, up-to-date credentials, and licences of doctors along with their specialisation and areas of expertise.
The âKnow Your Doctorâ QR code system is a smart move for patient safety. In Maharashtra, registered doctors now display QR codes scanning them reveals their credentials instantly, helping weed out fake practitioners.
However, only about 10,000 of 140,000+ doctors have opted in so far, making the system less effective . Telangana has also encouraged displaying QR codes to boost public trust and transparency .
The techâs solid now we just need wider adoption and awareness for it to truly work.
