BMC & state tussle over
sonography e-data in MUMBAI
Clara Lewis TNN (Times of
India, March 11, 2013)
Mumbai:A wrangle is brewing between
the BMC and the state health department over monitoring of sonography reports.
Last year, the government issued a notification insisting on online filing of
F-forms, which are to be filed every time a sonography test is conducted on a
pregnant woman. The test is done to detect any abnormalities in the foetus, but
gender determination is banned in India.
“Of the 4,293 sonography centres across
Maharashtra only 2,000 have been complying with the norms. The rest have not
been submitting forms online,” said a health department official.
“Of the
defaulters nearly 1,195 are from Mumbai. The city has 1,200 sonography centres
which means only five have been filing reports online,” he added.
The BMC,
which has been monitoring the filing of Fforms, said 50,000 forms are submitted
online every month. “The doctors have been filing the forms on
pcpndtmumbai.org. About three months ago, the government informed that the
forms must be filed on mahagov.in. We have informed the government that
the doctors have been trained to file on the other website and are finding it
difficult to shift to the government website,” said a BMC official.
Dr Jignesh
Thakkar, secretary of the Indian Radiologists and Imaging Association, said
doctors have been filing Fforms online but there is no clarity on the website
they must file on. “For the mahagov.in website, many doctors are yet to receive
a login and password. When we approach the BMC we are told to continue filing
on the old website,” he said.
However,
government officials insist that the forms must be filed on its websiteLast
week, at a meeting of the Pre-Conception and Pre-Natal Diagnostic Techniques
committee it was decided that doctors would be given a month to begin filing
online.

HC relief for doctors using USG
machines
Rosy Sequeira TNN
Mumbai: The Bombay high court on
Monday allowed portable ultrasonography machines to be taken to patients’ home
for any purpose other than sex determination. However, this will be subject to
installation of the silent observer ( SIOB), a device which monitors scans done
by USG machines. A division bench of Chief Justice Mohit Shah and Justice
Nitin Jamdar was hearing a petition filed by three Mumbaibased cardiologists
and an anaesthetist challenging the BMC’s order restraining them from taking
the machines outside the clinics/ hospitals, where the machines are registered. Their
petition said Pre-conception and Pre-natal Diagnostic Techniques Act (PCPNDT)
relates to restrictions on genetic clinics/ institutions and doctors who deal
with sex determination. “You cannot have a statute dealing with genetics
applying to doctors dealing with cardiology or anaesthesia or anything other
than genetics,” argued their counsel J P Cama. He said other forms of
medicines like cardiology, anaesthesia and vascular surgery also require the
portable machines. “You cannot expect a cardiology patient to go to a clinic or
hospital in emergency,” said Cama. The judges said the doctors can
take their machines out of the clinics/hospitals subject to installation of a
SIOB and verification by the chief medical officer of BMC.
