Does Camp MO has the Right to Cut Short Hospital Doctor' MC?

Fabian_t SG

hi,

is it possible for MO to cut short the mc given by the consultant of the hospital?

thanks

hairycrab138 SG

Yes. They can do that.

alize SG

Yes but they will be questioning the integrity of the other doctor by doing so. Never happens. That’s why units hate it when you go to a private doctor.

dragg SG

of course.

all MCs need to be endorsed by the MO. but if he cuts it short and something happens to you he is liable.

i believe thats why most MOs dont do that.

Domo Kun SG

Possible but not likely.

MO = medical officer...why not? u should have gone to him for treatment...now he jealous Laughing

fudgester SG

Yes.

MO is a medical doctor. A medical doctor has the right to countermand another medical doctor's orders if he so desires.

But that seldom happens, for as others have pointed out, it's a smack in the face for the first doctor.

Also, if sh*t happens, you can be sure that the MO will have it flying into his face.

Actually, there is a national medical guideline on how many days MC to give for what purpose. So it is pretty universal.

Synysterys SG

Actually they can.. The previous MO in my camp even cut my status from 2mths to 3 weeks. But heard that he kena shit later. Apparently he did that to many ppl and some guy with a pretty serious illness threatened to sue him.

alize SG

What a dick MO.

Did you or unit have a bad reputation within the camp for taking many MC?
