Current name
DHP exam Qatar
DHP is the current name of Qatar’s healthcare licensing authority. The exam guide written for the QCHP name stays on the QCHP page.
Quick answer
DHP is the Department of Healthcare Professions, under Qatar’s Ministry of Public Health. It is the current name of the authority formerly called QCHP. The qualifying exam is unchanged in name-search terms: candidates still look it up as the QCHP exam, and that guide holds the format, booking, and practice questions.
DHP and QCHP
QCHP meant Qatar Council for Healthcare Practitioners. The same function now sits with the Department of Healthcare Professions (DHP) at the Ministry of Public Health.
Search results still use both names. Use this page for the current name. Use the QCHP exam page for the exam walkthrough.
Where to start
The official qualifying examination page is on dhp.moph.gov.qa. Prometric booking for the Qatar exam is a later step, after DHP eligibility. This page does not repeat the fee table, the attempt rules, or the practice questions.
