National Medical Register (NMR) is a database maintained by the government for healthcare professionals, especially doctors. It serves as an official record of licensed doctors for people to get information about the doctors easily. The records are updated by the NMC (National Medical Commission).
The National Medical Register typically contains information about the doctor’s qualification, training, specialisation, registration status, and any disciplinary actions taken against them. It has been made mandatory for all the doctors to register themselves on NMR. Soon it will be possible to check details about any doctor from across the country for consultation.
