LETTER | The MMA initially proposed RM120 covering the amount of work involved.

| The Malaysian Medical Association is committed to and has been advocating the need to adhere to compulsory standards in ensuring that the health and safety of the public are maintained.

"Medical standards are required to assess certain conditions that may impair driving ability. These standards have been developed by an expert committee that has studied the needs and requirements of vocational drivers while also taking into consideration existing standards in many other countries."

However, we agreed to the RM80 as a recommended figure for our members in order to help the mostly B40 drivers. The general practitioners who have been charging RM80 didn’t take advantage but exercised corporate social responsibility as the maximum fee under the fee schedule is RM200. We wish to remind the general practitioners to perform a thorough and complete medical examination and charge appropriately as stipulated in the fee schedule.

The previous one-page renewal form was also subject for abuse and some doctors were charged by the MACC for signing without seeing patients in the past.
