The UK government and the General Medical Council (GMC) have introduced tougher language requirements for European doctors, nurses, paramedics and other healthcare professionals wishing to practice in the UK. The new PLAB English language assessment aims to ensure that senior medical staff in the UK can legally verify the language proficiency and communication skills of EU doctors before allowing them to work.

the PLAB Exam is the main pathway for international medical graduates (IMGs) to demonstrate the clinical knowledge and skills required for medical licensing in the UK.
