The problem DOCtionary solves

A WHO report released in 2016, had claimed that 31 per cent of those who claimed to be allopathic doctors in 2001 were educated only up to the secondary school level and 57 per cent did not have any medical qualification. This poses a serious threat. number of people every year lose their lives because of negligence.

Also, in India, according to WHO, less than 5% of medical data from patients is being collected in India, in contrast to industrialised nations where hospitals are mandated to collect and register all relevant medical history about their patients. “In India, only 400 out of the 62,000 hospitals collect medically relevant information about their patients,” said Dr Nagendra Swamy of Manipal Hospitals. “The only reason for this is that they are mandated by the National Accreditation Board for Hospitals (NABH) to do so.”
