India's central legislation for regulating clinical establishments to prescribe minimum standards of facilities and services across public and private healthcare providers.
The Clinical Establishments (Registration and Regulation) Act, 2010 was enacted to standardize healthcare infrastructure, equipment, and human resources across India. It applies to all clinical establishments (hospitals, nursing homes, clinics, dispensaries) offering diagnosis, treatment, or care for any disease, injury, or abnormality. Key requirements include: mandatory registration with the state Clinical Establishments Authority; compliance with minimum standards prescribed for each category of establishment; submission of annual reports regarding facilities, equipment, and outcomes; display of services and charges in a visible location; and maintenance of clinical records for prescribed periods. The Act is implemented in conjunction with state-specific rules and requires compliance with applicable accreditation standards (NABH). Facilities failing to comply face penalties including fines up to ₹5 lakhs and/or cancellation of registration.
