    "content": "Fourthly, the KMPDC should review its disciplinary procedures to ensure full compliance with Section 26(g) of the Medical Practitioners and Dentists Act, which requires fines to be imposed in addition to other appropriate disciplinary measures and create a formal patient advocacy programme within the healthcare facilities to assist families in navigating complaints and grievances related to medical care. It should also provide support in understanding medical procedures, rights, and available records in cases of perceived negligence. Fifthly, the KMPDC should develop standardized protocols and mechanisms for investigating reported medical negligence cases that outline the steps to be taken, timelines for investigation and the criteria for evaluating evidence. Further, that the decision of such cases should be rendered within six months of reporting and investigations should involve independent oversight and families of the victims to ensure transparency and accountability."
