Consulting on amending seven contents detailing a number of articles of the Law on Medical Examination and Treatment

Dr. Ha Anh Duc, Director of the Department of Medical Examination and Treatment Management ( Ministry of Health ) said that on January 9, 2023, the 15th National Assembly issued Law No. 15/2023/QH15 on Medical Examination and Treatment, effective from January 1, 2024.

Based on the Law on Medical Examination and Treatment, on December 30, 2023, the Government issued Decree No. 96/2023/ND-CP detailing a number of articles of the Law on Medical Examination and Treatment; on December 31, 2023, the Ministry of Health issued Circular No. 32/2023/TT-BYT detailing a number of articles of the Law on Medical Examination and Treatment. However, in the process of implementing the Decree and Circular, some shortcomings arose that needed to be adjusted and amended.

Accordingly, the drafting committee proposed to amend seven specific contents: Regarding professional qualifications; regulations on practice registration; conditions for medical examination and treatment facilities; practice issues; documents and procedures for granting practice licenses; regulations on revocation, suspension, and punishment of practitioners; and other issues.

Drafting committee members discussed with delegates about the revised contents.

The drafting committee said that it is expected that in June 2025, the draft new Decree replacing Decree No. 96/2023/ND-CP will be submitted to the Government for promulgation, helping units to implement the Law on Medical Examination and Treatment and the Decree and Circular effectively, with quality, and in accordance with Central regulations.
