What happens to individuals found guilty of violating the provisions of RA 5527?

Individuals found guilty of violating the provisions of RA 5527, also known as the Medical Technology Act of 1969, may indeed face penalties that include fines or imprisonment. This act aims to regulate the practice of medical technology in the Philippines to ensure the safety and well-being of the public. When someone is found in violation of its provisions, the consequences are legally enforced to uphold professional standards and accountability within the medical field.

The potential for fines and imprisonment is a significant deterrent meant to emphasize the seriousness of adhering to the regulations set forth in the Act. This helps maintain the integrity of the profession, ensuring that medical technologists operate within the legal framework designed to protect both the practitioners and the patients they serve.

The other options do not align with the provisions outlined in the law, as they either suggest leniency or consequences that are not stipulated in the legislative measures set by RA 5527.
