Overview The Junior Doctor Training Program — Private Hospital Stream (JDTP), previously known as the Commonwealth Medical Internship (CMI), is a federally funded initiative for international students who have completed their entire medical education in Australian universities. It supports PGY1-3 placements for medical graduates in private hospitals across Australia, with all doctors completing at least one rural rotation. List of Participating Hospitals - 2020 In 2020, the JDTP is supporting 115 internships at the following hospitals: • Mater Health Services North Queensland • Mercy Health and Aged Care Central QLD • MQ Health (Macquarie University Hospital) • St John of God Ballarat Hospital • Mater Hospital Sydney • St Vincent’s Private Hospital Sydney • Ramsay Health Care WA (Joondalup) • Greenslopes Private Hospital Eligibility Under the PHS, participating private hospitals must prioritise eligible international full fee paying medical graduates from onshore Australian medical schools (referred to as ‘Priority One’ category). Should the PHS places not be filled with applicants from the Priority One category, private hospitals may recruit eligible applicants with provisional registration (referred to as ‘Priority Two’ category). Priority One category Will be allocated to onshore Australian-trained final year medical students who are eligible for an internship under the PHS. Final year medical students must meet all of the following eligibility criteria to be considered: • Be a full-fee paying international student completing their medical degree during the current calendar year from an onshore medical school in Australia, having completed all of their medical degree in Australia (short-term elective rotations completed offshore will not exclude applicants provided rotations have university approval); and • Met the Medical Board of Australia (MBA) English language proficiency requirements for registration purposes (provisional registration as a medical practitioner cannot be obtained without meeting this standard); and • Not an Australian Citizen; and • Commit to obtaining an appropriate visa to work in Australia during the internship year (refer to the Department of Home Affairs website for details https://www.homeaffairs.gov.au/). Priority Two category Will be considered when the list of Priority One applicants is exhausted and there are vacant PHS internship positions available. Priority Two applicants must meet all of the following eligibility criteria to be considered: • have met MBA provisional registration requirements as a medical practitioner; and • have met the MBA English language proficiency requirements for registration purposes (provisional registration as a medical practitioner cannot be obtained without meeting this standard); and • commit to obtaining an appropriate visa to work in Australia during the internship year (refer to the Department of Home Affairs website for details https://www.homeaffairs.gov.au/).
