AMMAN — Minister of Health
Feras Hawari said on Sunday that the scholarship program for doctors in the medical
services and university hospitals (the residency programs) depends on their
achievement in the exams of the related entities, without a placement from the
ministry, according to Jo24.

Hawari said that “the ministry pledges to support any doctor who
obtains a specialization acceptance at any local institution, provided that
he/she passes the exam.” He said that
between 2018 and 2019, the ministry accepted five doctors, in 2020, seven
doctors, in 2021 six doctors, and in 2022 eight doctors.
“In the years 2018–2019 the ministry supported 12 doctors in
competitive sub-specialties and ministry placements, 13 doctors in 2020, 48
doctors in 2020, and 29 up to this date for 2022.”
Hawari
announced the ministry’s intention to increase the number of people admitted to
residency programs, saying that it has developed new plans to provide more
specialization opportunities for its doctors by activating the annual financial
allocation, which amounts to about JD1 million, of which no more than 50
percent has been used over the previous years.
“To achieve these ambitions, we accepted this year more than 662
residents; an increase of about 22.5 percent compared to previous years”.
