Are free educational webinar showing pre- and post-surgery photos allowed?
Healthcare Services Act(Advertisement) Regulations, Exemption Order
Generally, an educational webinar is not considered as an advertisement under HCS (Advertisement) Regulations and the stipulated requirements will not apply and medical practitioners must follow the SMC’s ECEG. However, if the education webinar comprises any information relating to a licensable healthcare service which seeks to solicit use of that licensable healthcare service, it will be subject to the stipulated requirements.
