Health reports unlicensed doctors to prosecutor
The Ministry of Health in Jordan has organized measures to combat illegal practices in the healthcare sector. Non-licensed doctors have been referred to the Public Prosecutor, and violating facilities have been shut down. The ministry emphasized that medical errors, especially in the field of dentistry, are addressed according to their severity, with complaints being classified and necessary actions taken. Over the past two months, 145 complaints have been handled, including 22 related to dental clinics. Inspection teams carried out 75 oversight visits to more than 500 facilities, closing 32 of them, and coordinated with cybercrime authorities to seize illegal medical advertisements on social media platforms. The licensing director warned against promoting unlawful treatment offers through social media, affirming that the code of conduct prohibits offering treatments at fixed prices or in packages, especially given the varying costs of treatments depending on each case. These measures aim to protect the reputation of the healthcare sector and patients’ rights, with violators held legally accountable in accordance with applicable laws.
