Any doctor who is currently employed in an EU member state is eligible to apply for a position as a visiting doctor. Visiting doctors will stay at the LKI (Landeskrankenhaus Innsbruck) or at the Medical University of Innsbruck for learning and training purposes. During their stay in Innsbruck, visiting doctors will continue to be paid by their original employer and to be covered by the social security. They will therefore not receive any financial payments from either the LKI or the Medical University of Innsbruck, nor will they be registered for social security in Innsbruck. The engagement of a visiting doctor does not imply any employer-employee relationship.

• Which documents will you need:
  The A1 form: This form is required as evidence that current employment relationship exists and that the visiting doctor has current social security cover.
• Lead Time: Applications must be lodged at least two months before the planned commencement date.
