(Chinhphu.vn) - Mr. Doan Dat (HCMC) graduated as a preventive medicine doctor, studied family medicine specialty level I and was granted a family medicine practice certificate, is working at the hospital with the title of preventive medicine doctor level III.

Mr. Dat asked, can he be transferred to the title of Grade III Doctor and participate in medical examination and treatment at the hospital's family doctor clinic?

Regarding this issue, the Ministry of Health responded as follows:

According to the provisions of the Law on Public Employees 2010 (amended and supplemented in 2019), civil servants working in a job position shall be appointed to a professional title corresponding to that job position; persons appointed to a professional title must meet the standards of that job title (Clause 1, Article 31); when a public service unit has a need, civil servants can be transferred to a new job position if they meet the professional and technical standards of that job position (Clause 1, Article 32).

According to the provisions of Clause 11, Article 1 of Circular No. 03/2022/TT-BYT dated April 26, 2022 of the Minister of Health amending and supplementing a number of regulations on professional title standards for health professionals, the standards for training and fostering qualifications of the professional title of Grade III Doctor are:

- Graduated from medical group (except traditional medicine).

- Have a training certificate according to the professional title standards of preventive medicine doctor (used for preventive medicine doctor title levels).

Based on the above regulations, civil servants with a degree in preventive medicine, a specialist in family medicine, do not meet the training requirements for the professional title of Grade III Doctor, so they do not meet the standards and conditions for consideration for transfer and appointment to the title of Grade III Doctor.
