Abstract

Medical recording is assuming more and more importance in the recent days due to increasing mistrust between the doctor and the patient. The Courts and the Medical Council of India are relying mainly on the medical records in deciding the fate of the doctor and his team in alleged negligence cases. However in practical reality, the medical recording is not given due attention, especially the new doctors, though many are performing their duties with diligence, medical recording is not done with the same care and attention. Here the authors have made an effort to compile all the laws and legislations where medical recording is the basis of execution. It is a bird's eye view of many related laws which are intended to awaken the doctor and supporting staff towards diligent medical recording.
