Exploring the effects of the health transformation plan on the quality of clinical education in teaching hospitals: a qualitative study

The HTP has been perceived to simultaneously create supportive conditions and structural constraints for clinical education. While structural and resource-related improvements were noted, the increasing dominance of service-oriented priorities and misaligned incentives were perceived as challenging the educational mission of teaching hospitals. These findings highlight the importance of integrating educational goals explicitly within health system reforms to sustain high-quality clinical education.
