Health Administration & Financing Diploma
Beirut - Lebanon 12 - 22 January 2009

Healthcare Administration and Financing Diploma

After the success of the Social Insurance Diploma Program held for the first time in November 2006 in Amman and subsequently in various locations in the Arab World for 6 times in a row, the Muhanna Foundation is proud to launch its new diploma in Healthcare Administration & Financing. The purpose of this program is training professionals to promote the development and sustainability of national healthcare systems in an evolving Arab World, thus meeting the growing regional demands for technical and scientific training in healthcare policies and techniques.

HAF Diploma Mission

Healthcare is a vital part of every person's existence. Most people understand the value of their health and the value of having adequate health insurance protection. However, few understand the complexity of administering and financing a national Healthcare system.

The design of viable health policies and the search for alternative methods for financing are of utmost importance to improve the quality of care and the health status of the residents in developing countries, especially due to the increase in costs of healthcare services

Our mission is to provide the participants with the knowledge, skills and techniques they need in healthcare administration & financing and to continue being active leaders in capacity building on both the national and regional levels.

The contents of the HAF diploma program focus on recent insights from academic theory and research as well as on policy problems and solutions. The lecturers interact with the participants and engage in debates during actual case studies and discussions which in our belief fill the gaps in standard academic teaching.


Diploma / Certificate of Attendance / Exam

After successful completion of both Program Modules (A & B), participants receive a Diploma in Healthcare Administration & Financing from the Muhanna Foundation.

A certificate of attendance is delivered to those participants who only attend one of the two modules, provided successful attendance, participation and performance in the final exam; the aim of the exam being to ensure that the material has been fully grasped by the participant. The exam consists of a combination of multiple choice questions as well as narrative evaluations.

Important note: Participants should acknowledge in advance that the workshop is intensive, in order to provide the optimal amount of material and knowledge, given the allocated amount of time. The extent of assimilation and benefits from the material depends on the participant's efforts and concentration.
