An intern who is obliged to cease his duties for health reasons may benefit, at the end of the leave mentioned in articles R. 6153-14 to R. 6153-17, from additional unpaid leave of a maximum duration of twelve months if it is recognised by the medical committee that his incapacity is temporary.
If, at the end of this new twelve-month leave, the medical committee considers that the person concerned cannot resume his duties, they are terminated.
