Dear Dr. Jose, Thank you for your good explanation on this topic on inspection done by MCI in Goa Medical College recently. Although they are fully right to do so, but the way it is done I have my objections . I am happy that you have already taken steps to put your papers in order so that in case you are been questioned, you do not have to run home (or worry), , to get the degrees and other documents. Perhaps all the doctors working in private Hospitals as well as in Government Hospitals must follow such steps. Those who do not have such degrees when MCI comes for inspection than these doctors must be dismissed. Hope this will help the patient who are been wrongly diagnosed by those doctors having no qualifications and working is such Institution or Hospitals. I am sure they have the support of politicians/ministers and managed to get the employment or jobs by bribing them.. Thank you for your letter and hope to see you personally in Goa.

II To: Stephen Dias <[email protected]> Dear Stephen, I know that you are a good man with the best of intentions. You are quite right to realise that Inspections / Audits occur (1) for a *reason* (2) Without notice. Never mind what Politicians may or may not deny, there is more to this, and it is not necessarily the 'Consperancy' you are assuming. Just that you know: I have *voluntarily* handed over to MY Private clinic's admin copies of my Medical degrees, Legal degrees, Permanent Registration of Medical degree, Annual Practice Licence, Business Licence, VAT certification, Certification of National Insurance Compliance, Annual Certificate of Facility's Fitness to operate as a clinic and my Malpractice Insurance. I will do so again wrt the Annual licences. Ditto wrt certificates needed for other places / hospitals I had / have privileges. That way, *I don't have to go home to get the certs.*....during spot checks....which ALL sensible physicians must anticipate and prepare for. Am I being reasonable? You are a good man. I am sure you will agree with me that Responsible Physicians will do the needful, proactively, to protect themselves' jc ps: I note that your response (infra) has been sent to the Public Domain (via Goanet). I will not cc my response to Goanet but You may feel free to do so* IF YOU WISH* by way of your response.... As I have near daily e-conversations with a journalist-friend.....will cc my response to her N do not have required qualification. If No, they should take action and not necessary in a hurry by stopping surgeries, Xay eetc. This is a plot for good doctors to leave the GMC and go elsewhere and we patients have to dance with lower staff quality doctors. I understand that these inspection do not come by overnight , but why Health Mitse is complaing that he should have been informed. Dean also says that he cannot argue with higher autorits as he has to give the replies to these inspectors of MCI. Why harassment and why relatives to put in heavy loss and all kind of troubles. I hope you will understand my difficulties putting this issue across/ Stephen --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- On 9 October 2015 at 08:18, Jose Colaco <[email protected]> wrote: > My dear Stephen, > > While I admire your zeal, I disagree with the points made by you wrt the > MCI's inspection of GMC. > > Trust me: These inspections do NOT happen in a vacuum.
