As per the officials, the HxMDP is a residential programme of a duration of one week that will take place from November 20 to November 27, 2022, on the campus ground. The programme includes top medical professionals and has 25 participants from across the nation.

The program will cover various topics such as human resources, hospital strategic planning, hospital services and operations, healthcare communication, healthcare technology, safety, quality, and accreditation, healthcare ethics and law, materials and supply chain management.

It will also cover domains like population, health, and pandemics, hospital facility planning and design, and gen next healthcare. It will address the learning needs of medical professionals such as facility directors, directors of health services, medical superintendents, etc.

The course will also include interactive sessions and group discussions targeted at honing analytical skills, as well as learning through problem-based learning, case techniques, and experience sharing by the participants and teachers.

Professor Shakti Gupta, Director of AIIMS Jammu said, Medical administrators are frequently appointed to leadership roles by virtue of their expertise and eminence in clinical domains, but the need for the development of core competencies related to the administrative skills of their roles is most frequently overlooked.

Although knowledge in the areas of human resources, legal and ethical concerns, equipment management, financial management, hospital operations, hospital performance, quality, and patient safety is necessary for the success of healthcare organisations and systems, formal management training is typically not a part of the career progression.

This programme will undoubtedly meet these demands, upskill participants and support the general advancement of Indian healthcare.

Speaking on the occasion, Professor B S Sahay, Director, IIM Jammu, said, “I would like to let you know that Jammu is the only city where all three national institutes of importance namely IIM, IIT, and AIIMS are there. IIM Jammu has already an MoU with IIT Jammu and AIIMS Jammu where we have two courses B.Tech + MBA ( Dual Degree) with IIT Jammu and MBA".

The programme has the special advantage of offering students an opportunity to learn the fundamentals of management and operations and technological concepts at IIT Jammu, and then gain subsequent practical, hands-on experience managing hospitals and healthcare services at AIIMS Jammu under the direction and supervision of hospital administrators.

The HxMDP was created with an emphasis on vital abilities and knowledge pertinent to senior healthcare professionals in administrative positions. By offering learning in management concepts along with updated modern tools and techniques, this programme aims to close the knowledge gap for those involved in healthcare administration.
