Alignment of Conditions for Lower-fee Practising Certificate and Lower Continuing Medical Education Requirements

23 April 2018

The Medical Registration Regulations were recently amended to align the conditions for lower-fee practising certificates (PCs) with the conditions for lower continuing medical education (CME) requirements.

From 1 April 2018, only doctors who are in reduced practice are eligible for lower-fee PC and lower CME requirements. A doctor in reduced practice can only prescribe medication for himself/herself or his/her spouse, child, adopted child, stepchild, grandchild, sibling, parent, step-parent or grandparent.
