Accrediting a Medical College; Sustaining Standards or a Hassle?

Abstract

Pakistan's health and medical education look to be in disarray due to a variety of issues. One of the key factors is the massive expansion of private medical institutions in response to rising national need for clinicians, but without sufficient standards of preservation and quality control. However, original evidence proving a significant drop in criteria is lacking. In the lack of proof, efforts to improve the system will fall flat. In Pakistan, there are growing worries about the standards of medical education. This report examines the difficulties to quality standards of Basic Medical Education in Pakistan in order to aid improve accreditation systems.
