NHM Assam Medical Officer Recruitment 2026 – Apply Online for 78 MBBS Posts

Vacancies: 78 · Posts: 1 · Type: Contractual · Mode: Online · Fee: Nil (all categories) · Apply: 09 September 2026–22 September 2026 · Remuneration: ₹55,000/month consolidated · Selection: Shortlisting + Interview / Selection Test · Location: Assam

While the Medical and Health Recruitment Board is filling regular Medical & Health Officer-I seats in Assam, the National Health Mission, Assam has opened a separate contractual window for 78 Medical Officer (MBBS) posts. The Office of the Mission Director published this mission-mode engagement on 09 September 2026 for public healthcare facilities across the state.

NHM Assam accepts online applications from 09 September 2026 to 22 September 2026. Eligible doctors need an MBBS from a recognised medical college, registration with the National Medical Commission (earlier MCI) or Assam Medical Council, and at least one year of experience. The upper age limit is 50 years as on 01 April 2026.

Remuneration is ₹55,000 per month, consolidated. There is no application fee. This is not the regular state medical cadre. Treat it as a time-bound NHM contract, not as MHRB’s M&HO-I drive running in the same fortnight.

Who Should Apply?

MBBS from a recognised medical college + NMC (earlier MCI) or Assam Medical Council registration + minimum 1 year experience → Medical Officer (MBBS) – 78 posts

This window suits doctors who already hold council registration and can show one completed year after MBBS. It also suits clinicians who want Assam public-health postings at PHC, CHC or district level without waiting for a regular cadre letter.

Who cannot apply (hard filters):

• No valid NMC / MCI / Assam Medical Council registration
• Less than 1 year of experience as required for this notice
• Age above 50 years as on 01 April 2026, unless a printed relaxation in the official advertisement covers you
• Final-year MBBS or internship-not-completed candidates (degree, registration and experience are all required)

Serving government doctors should keep an NOC ready for document verification or joining if their employer asks for it. The public summaries do not say the NOC must be uploaded before you submit the form.

Important Dates

No extension has been announced as of 13 September 2026. Do not wait until the last evening. The NHM eHRMIS apply page has shown downtime during this cycle.

What Posts Are Available? – NHM Assam Vacancy & Eligibility 2026

All 78 seats are for one designation: Medical Officer (MBBS). Category-wise and district-wise numbers were not published in the public summaries of this notice. Treat 78 as the official total until NHM prints a roster table.

A Medical Officer under NHM Assam typically runs OPD, national health programmes, basic indoor care and emergency referral at peripheral facilities. Exact station (PHC, CHC, district hospital or programme unit) is decided after selection.

✅ Confirmed: 78 Medical Officer (MBBS) seats, contractual mission-mode work, ₹55,000 consolidated, online apply till 22 September 2026.
❓ Not specified in public summaries: category roster, district-wise split, contract length, bond amount, and whether a written selection test is compulsory for every applicant.

What Is the Age Limit?

Examples:
✅ A 49-year-old candidate born on 02 April 1976 — eligible (within the 50-year limit as on 01 April 2026).
❌ A 51-year-old candidate born on 01 April 1975 — not eligible (exceeds the maximum age by 1 year).

Use our Age Eligibility Calculator to check instantly.

The minimum age is not printed in the public summaries. Use our Experience Calculator to confirm that your post-MBBS experience adds up to one full year.

What Is the Remuneration? – NHM Assam Medical Officer 2026

NHM Assam has published ₹55,000 per month as consolidated remuneration for this Medical Officer (MBBS) engagement. That figure is not a 7th CPC Level-10 basic. Separate DA and HRA are not listed.

This is contractual pay. Pension, NPS, and regular annual increment of a state cadre post should not be assumed unless the appointment order says so. Actual in-hand depends on tax already payable on your other income, not on this contract alone.

What Is the Application Fee?

No payment portal is required. A form that asks you to pay a private “processing fee” is not part of this notice.

How to Apply?

Applications are online only. Do not post a paper file to Christian Basti or Hengrabari unless a later notice says so.

1. Open the NHM Assam Medical Officer 2026 online application portal (open until 22 September 2026). If that page is down, use the NHM Assam recruitment page and open the live Medical Officer form from there.
2. Register with an active mobile number and email. Save the login.
3. Select Medical Officer (MBBS) under NHM Assam. Do not fill the MHRB M&HO-I or Registrar form by mistake.
4. Enter personal, MBBS and registration details exactly as they appear on certificates.
5. Upload photograph, signature and certificates. Resize files first with the Photo & Signature Resizer.
6. Submit the form and save the acknowledgement. Print or download a copy.

Suggested (not stated as a portal rule): finish the form at least a day early. The eHRMIS apply URL returned server errors during this cycle.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

1. Filing this form and thinking it covers MHRB’s regular M&HO-I seats. Those are a different board, different pay and a different last date (20 September 2026).
2. Applying with an expired or “applied for” council registration. The notice asks for MCI/AMC registration, not a pending receipt.
3. Uploading an experience letter with no start and end dates. One year must be countable.
4. Using the org homepage as the apply link and missing the eHRMIS form.
5. Treating ₹55,000 and “NHM Assam jobs” as a permanent government cadre. The engagement is contractual.

How Are Candidates Selected?

Selection is a chain of stages, not a single interview day.

1. Online application and eligibility screening
2. Shortlisting of eligible candidates
3. Interview and/or selection test
4. Document verification of originals
5. Contractual engagement and place-of-posting order

The schedule of the interview or selection test will be published on nhm.assam.gov.in with the list of provisionally shortlisted candidates. Marks weightage, negative marking and a detailed syllabus are not printed in the public summaries.

If a written selection test is not held for your batch, shortlisting plus interview and document checks will decide the list. Do not assume appointment on the basis of MBBS marks alone.

Why Does NHM Assam Matter?

National Health Mission, Assam is the state arm of India’s flagship public healthcare programme under the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India, implemented by the Government of Assam from Guwahati. It funds and staffs peripheral facilities, national disease-control work, maternal and child health, and mission-mode clinical posts that regular state cadres do not always fill on time.

Doctors searching “NHM Assam jobs”, “Assam Medical Officer vacancy” or “NHM Assam career” usually want a faster clinical posting than APSC or MHRB regular recruitment. NHM contracts put MBBS doctors into PHCs, CHCs and district programmes across Assam, including tea-garden and hard-to-reach belts through related service units.

The honest limit is the nature of employment. NHM Medical Officer work is mission-mode and contractual. Renewal depends on performance, scheme funds and later orders. It is useful public-health experience. It is not the same as a gazetted regular M&HO-I seat. Read more on NHM Assam, public healthcare jobs and Assam government jobs.

The SahisarkariJobs.in Analyst’s Take

The closest tab most MBBS applicants in Assam have opened this month is MHRB Assam Medical & Health Officer-I, not another NHM Staff Nurse notice. MHRB is a regular state service with a published pay scale. This NHM window is 78 contractual seats at ₹55,000 consolidated, with a shorter form and a 22 September 2026 close. Do not treat the two as one recruitment.

Best fit: doctors who already have NMC or Assam Medical Council registration, one year of countable experience, and who want a clinical posting in Assam public facilities without waiting for a regular cadre joining letter.

Skip this if you will only join a pensionable state service and cannot accept a time-bound NHM contract. Also skip if your council registration or experience year will not be ready before document verification.

Practical tip: Apply on the NHM eHRMIS form and, if you also meet MHRB M&HO-I rules, keep that application as a separate file. Same week, two employers, two outcomes.

Realistic timeline for similar NHM doctor drives is often a few weeks from shortlist to contract signing if documents are clean, not the 6–9 months of a large written-exam cadre. Posting is at the mission’s discretion. Growth on an NHM contract is renewal and later open regular exams, not an automatic promotion ladder.

What Documents Are Required for Assam Govt Jobs?

Keep scanned copies for the portal and originals for verification:

• MBBS degree and all professional marksheets
• Internship completion certificate
• NMC / MCI or Assam Medical Council registration certificate
• Experience certificate with dates (minimum 1 year)
• Age proof (HSLC / matric admit card or equivalent)
• Photo identity proof (Aadhaar, passport or similar government ID)
• Passport-size photograph and signature in the portal size
• Caste / PwBD / Ex-Servicemen certificate only if you claim that category
• NOC or permission letter if you already serve in government, when asked at verification

Document alert: Registration must be live. A fee receipt for a pending AMC file is a common rejection point. If you are not yet on the Assam register, start that process now; state council enrolment often takes 2–4 weeks.

Service Conditions

Engagement is contractual and in mission mode under NHM Assam. Public summaries do not print tenure, bond, notice period or automatic regularisation. Expect a written contract through the District Health Society after verification. Facilities such as hostel or quarters are not guaranteed in this notice.

What Happens After Selection?

1. NHM Assam publishes the provisionally shortlisted list and the interview or selection-test date on its website.
2. You attend with originals and a self-attested set. No TA/DA is the usual NHM practice.
3. After verification, a contractual engagement order is issued. Vacancy numbers can still change at this stage.
4. You report to the Joint Director of Health Services / District Health Society named in the order and sign the terms of the contract.
5. Place of posting is allotted across Assam. First posting is often a peripheral facility, not a metro OPD by choice.
6. Continuation depends on the contract, performance and later NHM orders. Regular cadre entry still needs a separate MHRB or APSC process.

FAQs – NHM Assam Medical Officer 2026

What is the last date to apply for NHM Assam Medical Officer 2026?

22 September 2026. Late applications are generally not accepted, and no extension has been announced as of 13 September 2026. Submit on the eHRMIS portal rather than waiting until the last evening, because that page has shown downtime.

What is the age limit for NHM Assam Medical Officer?

50 years as of 01 April 2026 for the general upper limit. Reserved categories get relaxation only as printed in Assam or Government of India rules. Extra years were not published as final numbers in the public summaries. Check the official notice for your category.

Is there an exam for NHM Assam Medical Officer, or is it interview-based?

Both are possible. NHM Assam will publish a shortlist and then an interview or selection-test schedule on nhm.assam.gov.in. Paper pattern, marks and negative marking are not specified yet. Watch the website instead of waiting for a personal call letter.

What is the salary of NHM Assam Medical Officer?

₹55,000 per month consolidated, as published for this engagement. Separate DA and HRA are not listed. The indicative take-home is about the same figure unless TDS applies to your total income. This is contractual pay, not a 7th CPC Level-10 scale.

Can final-year students or result-awaited candidates apply for NHM Assam 2026?

No. You need a completed MBBS, live council registration and one year of experience. Internship-not-finished and result-awaited candidates do not meet all three conditions together. Produce originals at document verification if shortlisted.

Is NHM Assam Medical Officer a permanent government job?

No. This is a contractual mission-mode engagement under the National Health Mission, Assam. It is public-sector clinical work, but it is not regular state medical service. Renewal is not automatic. Regular M&HO-I seats are filled through MHRB, not through this form.

Can candidates from other states apply for NHM Assam recruitment?

The public summaries do not print an Assam-domicile bar. They do require NMC/MCI or Assam Medical Council registration plus one year of experience. If you practise on another state register only, confirm whether that registration is accepted before you submit.

Where will I be posted if I get selected for NHM Assam Medical Officer?

Somewhere in Assam, usually a public facility under the District Health Society. District choice is not published as a candidate’s right in this notice. First posting is often peripheral. Transfers later follow NHM and district orders.

Is there any application fee for this Medical Officer post?

No. The fee is nil for every category. You should not pay a private agent or a lookalike payment link. If a site asks for money to “speed up” NHM Assam Medical Officer 2026, treat it as fraud and report it.

Do I need Assam Medical Council registration or is NMC enough?

The eligibility line accepts Medical Council of India (now NMC) or Assam Medical Council registration. Carry the certificate that matches the name on your MBBS documents. If NHM later insists on AMC at joining, start that enrolment early.

What are the disadvantages of an NHM Medical Officer contract in Assam?

The honest downside is the nature. Pay is a fixed ₹55,000 with no published DA ladder, and the seat is contractual. Regular MHRB M&HO-I work sits on a state pay scale with cadre rules. Apply here for clinical entry, not for guaranteed permanence.

How much do NHM contract doctors earn in Assam?

This notice publishes ₹55,000 a month for a Medical Officer (MBBS). Other NHM clinical contracts in Assam have used different consolidated figures in other advertisements. Always read the pay line of the notice you are applying under. Do not copy an older rural-posting stipend.

Are NHM Medical Officer posts in Assam converted to permanent jobs?

Not as a rule stated in this recruitment. Some doctors later clear MHRB or other regular exams while working on an NHM contract. Conversion is not the selection result of this 78-post window. Read the contract before you resign from another job.
