The Department of Medical Examination and Treatment ( Ministry of Health ) requested the health departments of provinces and cities to rectify advertising activities for medical examination and treatment facilities.

On March 4, Mr. Ha Anh Duc - Director of the Department of Medical Examination and Treatment Management - signed and issued a document to rectify advertising activities related to medical examination and treatment.
Accordingly, the Department has received feedback from a number of agencies, units and press agencies related to the advertising of a number of medical examination and treatment facilities that advertise on social networking sites. For example, at the Facebook address: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/14vaFottJw/, the medical examination and treatment facility is DNA International Hospital, which advertises "high-tech blood filtration technique to remove blood fat and reduce the risk of stroke...".
To clarify the reflection of the press agency, the Department of Medical Examination and Treatment Management requests the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Health to check and review the content related to the reflection on the advertising content of DNA International Hospital, including reviewing the list of techniques that the Ministry of Health has licensed for the hospital to perform in the advertisement at the above address.
The Department of Medical Examination and Treatment Management emphasized that in cases where hospitals advertise inconsistently with the approved technical list or inconsistently with the licensed advertising content certificate, it is recommended that violations be strictly handled.
For the health departments of provinces and centrally-run cities, the Department of Medical Examination and Treatment Management requests that the health departments inspect and review the advertising content of medical examination and treatment facilities in the management area.
Strictly handle cases where medical examination and treatment facilities advertise medical examination and treatment services without being granted an advertising license; advertise inconsistently with advertising content that has been granted an advertising license by a competent authority in the field of medical examination and treatment.
The Department of Medical Examination and Treatment Management requests units to seriously implement and ensure compliance with legal regulations.
