All the seats belong to the single post of Medical Officer (Medical), and the six category figures add up exactly to 600. The women’s seats shown below are a sub-split inside each category, not extra openings — so do not add them again.

Within the seats kept for women, 8% go to widows and 2% to divorced or separated (parityakta) women. If such candidates are not available, those seats are filled by general women of the same category.

Because the department last advertised through RUHS in 2024, further relaxation in the upper age limit is allowed as per the Department of Personnel notification dated 23/09/2008. One warning you must not skip: candidates who are not bonafide residents of Rajasthan are treated as Unreserved and get no benefit of age, category or fee relaxation at all.
What is the Salary for RUHS Medical Officer Recruitment 2026?
The post carries the pay scale of ₹15,600 – ₹39,100 in Pay Level 14 of the Rajasthan pay matrix, which is a strong start for a fresh MBBS doctor in state service.
| Component | Amount Per Month |
|---|---|
| Fixed remuneration during 1-year probation | ₹39,300 |
| Medical Care Allowance (Chikitsa Paricharya Bhatta) | ₹17,400 |

What is the Selection Process and Exam Pattern for RUHS MODRE 2026?
There is only one exam. MODRE-2026 is an eligibility-cum-ranking examination, and appearing in it does not by itself give you any right to eligibility — the final call rests with the Directorate after papers are checked.

| MODRE-2026 written examination | Offline, OMR based — the only exam |
| Document verification | Done by the Directorate of Medical Health & Family Welfare |

Our exam syllabus and pattern guides can help you build a revision plan.
