The local departments need to be involved in choosing the right expert needed as per patient requirement. Sometimes we get many of the same type of sub-super-speciality when the patients actually need a different expertise. Many times we are unaware of the visits until after confirmation. MOHAP should kindly consult local teams first.

Great initiative but it should be monitored more strictly because Physicians would not be in the country after a visiting period. If patient has any complaints then it should be looked into effectively and if necessary the Physician Consultant should be answerable to the procedure/treatment.
