The Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC) has taken a major step toward digital transformation by launching a new online licensing system for the registration of medical and dental colleges in Punjab. This initiative promises to simplify the registration process for medical professionals and institutions, eliminating the need for physical travel to Islamabad.
🚀 Key Features and Benefits of the New PMDC Portal
- Applicants can now complete all registration services online via the PMDC Lahore office.
- Medical and dental practitioners will receive their original certificates via courier, enhancing convenience and reducing delays.
- The system aims to provide comprehensive support to applicants at every step.
Dr. Rizwan Taj, PMDC President, described this launch as a landmark development for Pakistan’s healthcare sector.
🌐 Nationwide Rollout in Phases
Following the successful Punjab launch, the PMDC plans to expand the online licensing system nationwide in a phased manner:
- Phase 2: Peshawar and Karachi
- Phase 3: Jamshoro and Balochistan
- Phase 4: Multan
This phased rollout will gradually provide accessible, efficient registration services to medical professionals across Pakistan.
🩺 Modernizing Healthcare Administration
The new online system aligns with Pakistan’s broader efforts to digitize public services and improve healthcare administration. By streamlining licensing and registration processes, the PMDC aims to support medical practitioners better and enhance the quality of healthcare education and practice.
