The private medical college has to provide a monthly subsistence allowance of at least 25,000 to the resident doctors who are studying for paid post-graduate studies.
Co-Chairman of Medical Education Commission and Health Minister Pradeep Paudel and Education Minister Vidya Bhattarai have decided to provide allowance of 25,000 in the first year, 30,000 in the second year and 35,000 in the third year. Chairman of the Commission and Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli had given the responsibility to the two ministers to settle the subsistence allowance dispute in the private medical college. They have informed that the decision has been reached after consultation with stakeholders.
The said decision will be effective from the batch of the next academic year 2081/082 . The resident doctors have been demanding a monthly subsistence allowance of Rs 48,000 from the government medical college.
According to the decision of the meeting held at the Ministry of Education on Sunday, doctors who want to study free of charge for postgraduate studies in the private sector will be able to do so on the confession of working for two years after completing their studies. Doctors who are admitted on the condition of working for two years will get a subsistence allowance of 48,000 per month according to the government. It is said in the decision signed by the two ministers that "the government will make necessary legal arrangements to arrange for residential doctors who want to study for free to serve in the same educational institution for two years after their studies". Similarly, it has been decided that private medical colleges should provide decent facilities to resident doctors according to the university and medical council and prevailing labor laws.
Prime Minister Oli assigned the responsibility of two ministers to solve the dispute related to subsistence allowance provided by private medical colleges in the meeting of the commission held on November 9. At present, private medical colleges are giving monthly subsistence allowance of 19,000 to 24,000 to doctors. A new proposal has been made to study free of charge on the condition of serving two years in a private medical college.
As the controversy grew, the private medical college owners themselves proposed to provide free teaching on the condition that they serve for two years like in the government after completing their studies. Resident doctors are not satisfied with that. They say that there is no clear provision in this regard in government hospitals and there is a lack of law in private ones.
The seat in the private medical college has not been determined due to the subsistence allowance dispute . The commission has prepared to conduct the integrated entrance exam in the coming week without determining the seats. The commission provided 48,000 subsistence allowance to both the government and the private sector, but the private colleges did not participate in the process after placing the condition of seat determination. Then the subject was entered into the meeting of the medical commission.
