My own observations are a few:
1) Cut down the role of viva marks in medical exams..it gives too much discretion to professors
2) PMDC needs a total revamp..it needs to be devolved and restructured, to the provinces with better funding and a much stronger system of (re) validation of PMDC registration, with a prosecuting system to punish quacks and Doctors.
3)In NWFP they introduced the IBB which triggered protests from Doctors..but the scheme was rermarkably successful...in outlying areas..
4) They should consider launching a scheme similar to the Higher Education Commissions foreign faculty programme a to attract well qualified Doctors back to Pakistan in large numbers
5) Medical College Class sizes should be cut all across the board
6) The bulk of all funding needs to start going towards para medics..midwives and nurses..recuiting needs to be done ona large scale with proper facilities in poor areas to bring down infant mortality rates
7) Management staff salaries need to be revamped..the NHS has a system of specialised management training..similar to CSS for NHS management..
