There are approximately 300 candidates for the 100 additional doctor posts announced by the federal government, of which approximately 200 are in the relevant regions and fields.
Andreas Huss, co-chairman of the Austrian Health Insurance Fund (ÖGK) on the employee side, now wants to talk to them.
If more than a hundred remain, he wants to offer everyone else a job, he said on Wednesday in the Ö1 “Morgenjournal”.
Huss is already in contact with the Ministry of Health about this and is trying to secure funding for possible additional functions. His goal: “That we do not have to refuse a doctor who is interested and wants to take over the care contract and who we urgently need.”
He was optimistic about the performance. At the very least, there is a sensitivity in the federal government that more positions are needed than these 100 additional positions.
