On June 17, 2023, Uttarakhand Health Minister Dr. Dhan Singh Rawat said that on the lines of higher education, now MBBS students in state medical colleges will get degrees and other educational certificates through Digi Locker. In this regard, instructions have been given to Uttarakhand Medical Education University to prepare a system for DigiLocker at the earliest.
Key Points:
- Apart from this, all the hospitals and health centres of the state will be seen in one colour. For this, the departmental officers have been asked to decide the color code, so that uniformity can be seen in all the medical units.
- It was told in the meeting that educational certificates of medical students will be available on DigiLocker so that medical students can download their degrees and other educational certificates anytime.
- The Health Minister said that government medical colleges and nursing colleges will be linked to the e-Granthalaya portal while digitizing medical education so that medical students do not have to face the shortage of books.
- Apart from course books, research papers will also be available online to the students on the e-Granthalaya portal. Apart from this, students will also get an opportunity to connect with the libraries of medical colleges and universities in the country & abroad.
- The rate of patient registration fees will be made uniform across hospitals and medical colleges in the state. A proposal for this will be prepared soon and sent to the government.
