I. – The entity designated by the agreement referred to in 2° of article L. 4111-1-2 or, failing this, the health establishment that has made the offer to take on the trainee, draws up the application for a temporary authorisation to practise in conjunction with the person concerned. It sends the application to the Director General of the National Management Centre for Hospital Practitioners and Hospital Civil Service Management Staff (Centre national de gestion), who checks that the application is complete and then forwards it without delay to the relevant National Council of the Order and the Minister for Health for their opinion.
The opinion of the Conseil national de l’ordre is deemed to have been given within two months of receipt of a complete application by the Director General of the Centre national de gestion.
If the Minister remains silent on applications for temporary authorisation to practise for four months from receipt of a complete application by the Director General of the National Management Centre, this will be deemed to constitute a decision to reject the application.
An order by the Minister for Health sets the deadline by which the application must be sent to the National Management Centre, the model application form and the list of supporting documents to be provided.
II. – The Director General of the National Management Centre, on behalf of the Minister for Health, issues a temporary authorisation to practise medicine or dental surgery to the practitioner mentioned in 2° of article L. 4111-1-2 when the latter fulfils the conditions laid down in this article and in article R. 4111-33. Authorisation is granted for a given hospital department or unit, and for a period which may not be less than three months or more than two years. It states whether the practitioner benefits from a waiver of the French language proficiency requirement pursuant to 3° of article R. 4111-33.
III. – The person concerned and the host establishment are notified of the authorisation. A copy is sent to the conseil national de l’ordre. The latter will forward to the relevant departmental council of the ordre the information required for registration on the ordre’s roll.
