The clarity on the structure and functioning of academic Public health, Community Medicine and Family Medicine appears to missing to a large extent. The confusion appears more visible now than ever before. The dichotomy in regulating medical training by India's regulators, the National Medical Commission (NMC) and National Board of Examination (NBE) does not seem to be helping the situation either. Added to it is the confusion created by academic institution not directly regulated by the NMC.
学术性公共卫生、社区医学和家庭医学的结构与功能在很大程度上似乎并不明晰。这种混乱如今比以往任何时候都更加明显。印度监管机构,即国家医学委员会(NMC)和国家考试委员会(NBE)在规范医学培训方面的二分法似乎也无助于改善这种情况。此外,不受NMC直接监管的学术机构也造成了混乱。
