J&K Medical Council sets social media guidelines for doctors
SRINAGAR: A week after an MBBS student filmed his career's first stint in the operation theatre and posted it online as a reel, Jammu and Kashmir Medical Council (JKMC) on Wednesday issued social media guidelines for doctors in the Union Territory, prohibiting them from sharing images or videos of treatment results, surgeries, procedures, or healed patients. In the video, which was widely circulated on social media platforms, an MBBS student at GMC Srinagar's LD Hospital, excitedly shared that he was about to perform his first surgery in the OT, and proceeded to the labour room, thus exposing the parts of the patient's body. Taking serious cognisance, JKMC issued a set of guidelines to ensure such violations do not recur. While acknowledging the role of social media as 'a powerful communication tool', the Council, in a statement, cautioned against its misuse, particularly in ways that compromised patient privacy, confidentiality or autonomy. JKMC directed registered doctors to follow the set guidelines on the professional conduct of Registered Medical Practitioners (RMPs) regarding the use of social media platforms in adherence to Indian Medical Council Regulations, 2002. 'RMPs must not advertise services, claim superiority, or engage in self-promotional activities (posting self-photographs or publicity on signboards beyond basic details). Permitted announcements are — starting practice, change of address, or temporary absence,' the JKMC statement said. Patient information — including images, scans, treatments, and outcomes — must not be disclosed without explicit and informed consent, JKMC said. 'Consent is invalid if the patient is in a compromised physical, mental, or emotional state. Patient testimonials, endorsements, or reviews cannot be solicited or shared in any case on social media,' it added. The Council asked RMPs to maintain dignity and avoid behaviour that discredits the profession on any media platform. 'Sharing factual, verifiable, and non-misleading educational content is allowed, within one's expertise. Public discussions of treatment or prescribing medications online is prohibited; patients must be directed to proper telemedicine or in-person consultations,' it said. Online presence must reflect medical ethics, truthfulness, and respect for the profession, patients, colleagues and the community, JKMC said, urging doctors to share content responsibly.

Doctors with unrecognised certifications will face legal action: TG Medical Council
Hyderabad: In a public notice, the Telangana Medical Council (TGMC) has cautioned registered medical practitioners of all streams of medicine, including allopathy, dental and AYUSH, against using unrecognised certifications like modern scientific diploma/fellowship training and certification programs offered by the Council of Cosmetology, Trichology and Regenerative and Aesthetic Sciences of India, Institute of Laser and Aesthetic Medicine (ILAMED) and Asian Institute of Advanced Dentistry (AIAD), among others, which the Council said had no recognition whatsoever. It would be a futile exercise to enroll in such blacklisted programs, said Council Chairman Dr K Mahesh Kumar. He said that any person found displaying such certification and or is found to be practicing modern medicine on the basis of such certification in Telangana would be subject to legal action as per the Indian Medical Council (Professional Conduct Etiquette and Ethics) Regulations, 2002; section 20 and 22 of Telangana Medical Practitioners Registration Act 1968 and section 34 r/w 54 of National Medical Commission Act 2019, whichever is applicable. According to Section 35 of the NMC Act 2019, medical qualification granted by any university or medical institution in India should be listed and maintained by the Under-Graduate Medical Education Board or the Post-Graduate Medical Education Board. According to the Section 37 of the NMC Act, the medical qualifications granted by any statutory or other body in India which are covered by the categories listed in the schedule should be recognised medical qualifications for the purposes of this Act. Dr Mahesh Kumar said that a modern scientific medicine qualification will be recognised only if it is listed and maintained by the Under-Graduate Medical Education Board, NMC or the Post-Graduate Medical Education Board, NMC, including undergraduate, postgraduate or super-speciality fellowship modern scientific medicine qualification. Medical qualifications granted by any statutory or other body, which are covered by the categories listed in the Schedule, are the recognised medical qualifications. Meanwhile, the Central government may, by notification, add or omit from the Schedule any categories of medical qualifications granted by a statutory or other body in India.
