Medical Association of Zambia (MAZ) spokesperson Larry Njungu says the institution has put in place measures to control illegal medical practice in the country.
Speaking in an interview with ZANIS, today, Mr. Njungu warned all medical practitioners and institutions to register with MAZ before operating in Zamba.
He said MAZ has legal powers to close or bar any medical practitioner and health institution under CAP 297 of the laws of Zambia.
Mr. Nyungu also said also said MAZ will also monitor all medical equipment in the country as the same Statute Instrument demands the registration by MAZ.
He said every equipment is in existing because they have registered and the regulations are protected by the law including the surgeon and lab technicians.
He advised all medical practitioners and institutions to ensure that they renew their licenses annually in order to practice without any inconvenience.

With the prevalence of the aids scourge, a lot of quacks are doing rounds. There are all sorts – Chinese, Congolese, even Zambians. There is need to separate the chaff from the wheat.
Zambia Medical Assocition (ZMA) is body representing the professional and occupational interests of medical practitioners in Zambia. The Medical Council of Zambia (MCZ), on the other hand, is a statutory body that regulates the practice of medicine including registration of practitioners and licensing of facilities such as private surgeries and hospitals.

..or else what? yu’re toothless.there’re so many tuntemba kind of clinics in pipo’s backyards with no proper facilities fo disposal of medical waste,no proper labs,no sterilizing equipment etc .many pipo’s health is put at risk esp in these low class areas.one wonders how many corrupt free medical inspectors we have,tuntembas are all over lsk,some even dealing in prescription medications.plz do something,thanx fo warning,hope yu mean it.
# 2 Malaika , you are very right , there is a dig difference between MCZ and ZMA. Though MCZ does not seem to have direction ….
This is exactly what happens when a country cant maintain its own professionals. Zambia spends so much money training Doctors and they all just leave the country without paying back. so it is Quack time. Dont blame the quack, he is just filling in the void.
