Healthcare professionals like physiotherapists, pathology
technologists and medical radiation technologists are playing a vital role in
delivering health care in the nation. And to acknowledge their efforts, the
government has taken a decision to set up a separate Board to ensure proper
standards and their professional development. A platform for standardization of
courses and curriculum will be provided, by the National Board for Allied health
sciences, in various fields such as physiotherapy, optometry, speech language
pathology, medical lab technology and radiography.
According to a study, India has a shortage of around 6.4
million allied health professionals. Regulatory bodies or councils are there
only for doctors, dentists, nurses and pharmacists.
