Jordanian medical schools graduate close to 2000 students annually. This number far exceeds the approximately 400 available residency training positions. On average, medical students have two weeks of training in outpatient primary healthcare settings during their entire medical school. The majority of their training takes place in an inpatient setting or in specialty clinics. Due to the lack of residency positions, the vast majority of the graduates directly begin working as General Practitioners (GPs) in an outpatient setting. A large portion of these GPs find jobs within the ministry of health (MOH) and often work in rural areas without nearby mentors available. The resulting impact is a drastic discrepancy of care between those clinics with residency-trained physicians and those staffed by GPs. The main goal of our Family Medicine Diploma Program is to increase overall health in Jordan by providing an increased of well-trained physicians while also decreasing healthcare costs by decreasing costly referrals and unneeded tests. GPs will be given valuable on-the-job experience in an outpatient setting under the supervision of a board-certified Family Medicine physician. GPs will receive enough training to confidently and accurately develop a broad differential diagnosis, decide upon a specific diagnosis, and properly treat the disease. Heavy emphasis will be on critical thinking and communication skills. This will increase the quality of care the patients receive leading to better health in the entire community. Furthermore, since the physicians will be more confident in their clinical judgment, they will refer less patients to specialists. They will refer less patients to specialists. They will also order less unnecessary tests and procedures. All of these outcomes will decrease overall health costs and decrease disease burden.
