Irbid, June 23 (Petra) -- The Jordan Post and the Princess Basma Teaching Hospital are advancing efforts to improve healthcare accessibility through a joint initiative aimed at delivering medications directly to patients, particularly those requiring ongoing treatment for chronic conditions.

The initiative was discussed during a meeting between Northern Region Postal Directorate Director Omar Tbeishat and Princess Basma Teaching Hospital Director Dr. Walid Al-Halabi, alongside members of the hospital’s medical team.

The proposed service is designed to spare patients unnecessary trips to the hospital for prescription refills, making treatment more convenient while helping reduce congestion at outpatient clinics and pharmacy counters.

As part of the plan, the two sides examined the possibility of establishing a dedicated Jordan Post service point within the hospital. The counter would assist patients in using the "Hakimi" digital platform to request medication deliveries and provide guidance on accessing the service.

Dr. Al-Halabi stressed the value of institutional partnerships in enhancing patient care and revealed that a specialized team has been assigned to coordinate with Jordan Post on implementation. The team will work on developing operational procedures and overseeing the rollout of the service.

The meeting concluded with Tbeishat presenting Al-Halabi with a commemorative collection of Jordanian postage stamps in recognition of the hospital’s longstanding contribution to healthcare services in Irbid and across northern Jordan.
