                    [Title] => NBI report on exam leakage out Oct. 15 — PRC
                    [Summary] => The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) might come up with the results of its investigation on the alleged leakage in last June’s licensure examination for nursing by Oct. 15, the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) said yesterday.


However, PRC Chairwoman Leonor Rosero said in case the NBI finds any review center involved in the leakage, the PRC does not have any authority to close it down.


But she said the PRC could revoke the licenses of registered nurses who own or run the review centers.

                    [Summary] => An expert from the University of the Philippines expressed hope yesterday that the leakage controversy in the nursing board examinations will not hamper plans to put up a testing center for the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX) in the Philippines.


Dr. Marilyn Lorenzo, director of the UP Institute of Health Policy and Development Study, said that when the leakage controversy broke out, there were fears that the plans to create the NCLEX would be gravely affected.

                    [Summary] => The continued migration of Filipino doctors for better-paying jobs as nurses abroad can cause the country’s health care system to collapse, an expert said yesterday.


Dr. Marilyn Lorenzo, who heads the University of the Philippines’ Institute of Health Policy and Development Studies (UP-IHPDS), said 3,657 doctors left the country  from 1996 to 2002.


"Something must really be done on this because the quality of our own health care system will deteriorate" if patients are left in the care of inexperienced doctors, she said.
