The Maharashtra Medical Council (MMC) has taken up the huge task of digitising the records of as many as 11 lakh doctors, starting from the 1960s, for preservation.
With its completion, all the documents of registered doctors — educational qualifications — across the state will be available to the MMC at the click of a button; and will help it to handle medical negligence or malpractice cases. With the completion of the job, MMC will become the first medical council in India to digitise all these documents.
