The Fake Doctor Problem in India

India has seen numerous high-profile cases of individuals practising medicine with fake degrees — from rural health centres to urban hospitals. The consequences can be fatal. Healthcare employers bear both legal liability and moral responsibility for verifying the credentials of clinical staff before they are deployed in patient-facing roles.

NMC and State Medical Council Verification

All registered medical practitioners in India must be registered with the National Medical Commission (NMC) and the relevant state medical council. VeridionQ verifies both registrations for every MBBS and specialist hire — cross-checking name, registration number, specialisation, and current registration status.

Paramedical and Nursing Verification

Nursing and paramedical credentials are equally important to verify. State nursing councils maintain registers of registered nurses and midwives. Pharmacy Council of India (PCI) regulates pharmacy professionals. VeridionQ's healthcare package covers all paramedical credential verification.
