The National Medical Register (NMR) introduced by the Health Ministry to maintain a consolidated list of allopathic doctors in India is facing problems such as mismatches in details of Aadhar, State medical board registration (including spellings of name, surname) etc. It is confusing for doctors who want to register with the NMR. They say that they are now required to file affidavits to establish their identity which according to the doctors is causing confusion and delay. Doctors are demanding that their State registration should automatically be converted into national registration by the Central government. The register is maintained by the National Medical Commission (NMC) and is a dynamic, centralised repository that contains the names, addresses, and qualifications of licensed medical practitioners. The NMR also verifies the authenticity of doctors using Aadhaar IDs. All doctors registered on the Indian Medical Register (IMR) are to re-register on the NMR, as per the Government order.
