The MCI and all other health regulatory bodies will soon be scrapped and a new regulatory parent body, the National Council for Human Resources in Health will replace them. Read about it in the URL above.
The MCI has been a hotbed of corruption. Invested with regulatory power, it has abused that power and spawned a generation of “donation doctors”, who have in turn soiled the practice of medicine with avarice. They have bartered and sold the standards of the profession in the marketplace. This has in turn replaced trust with suspicion in the mind of society. Indeed the MCI has much to answer for.
I hope this new step will be the harbinger of change and it will not shrink from exorcising the current ill humour from our profession.
