The advantages of the Updating and Digital Medical Register

• The RMPs have complied with the requirement for Digital Medical Register envisaged by the Government and the MCI.
• With Digital Certificates, accessing them from anywhere in the world can be done from their own storage.
• The question of losing them by the RMPs is remote.
• With Digital Medical Register, all services in MC as required can be done faster.
• The CME credit hours can all be automatically credited in their accounts.
• Individual update of address or some of the basic data can be done by themselves.
• Earlier MC charged Rs 1000 for each of a duplicate registration certificate, Rs 150 for one ID Card and Rs 850 for one Name Board as fees. All such needs will not be there as the RMPs can print out any number of copies of all that provided till the validity period.
