Recruitment from specialist physician substitution to on-call duty
We will find the right personnel replacement for you – both for a fixed-term permanent position and in the context of temporary employment. As an experienced personnel service provider, we refer exactly to the requirements and tasks that you place on the personnel.
Are you planning to work on the ward, in the operating room, in the central accident and emergency department / emergency room (A&E – ER) or in the intensive care unit (ICU)? Chief physician, senior physician and specialist substitutes often look for medical facilities when vacation, illness or other personnel shortages arise. Perhaps you also need qualified support with on-call duty or 24-hour and weekend services?
Our experienced key account managers proactively establish personal contact with physicians for you. In recent years, we have been able to build up a wide-ranging network of qualified physicians – as well as committed junior staff.
But how do we ensure the qualifications of our medical professionals? The following minimum qualifications apply to our personnel-leased physicians:
✓ German licence to practice medicine,
✓ positive references from previous activities as a substitute physician in the respective specialist area as well as
✓ good German knowledge.
Fee-based physician: as employees of a hospital they are subject to compulsory social insurance
In 2019, the twelfth Senate of the Federal Social Court decided that physicians who work as fee-based physicians in a hospital are subject to compulsory social insurance as employees of the hospital, as they are bound by instructions and integrated into a work organisation. This applies regardless of a possible shortage of skilled workers in the healthcare sector.
Since the judgement dated 04/06/2019, fee-based physicians (or today substitute physicians) can only legally be used in the contractual forms of temporary employment via personnel leasing or fixed-term permanent employment.
Since the term "fee-based physician" is firmly established in language usage, we use it. In our daily work as a recruitment agency for physicians, we adhere to the requirements of the legislator and offer you appropriate forms of contract.

We recruit your substitute physicians for you
There is always talk of a shortage of skilled workers in nursing in Germany. We often forget that, in addition to a lack of nurses, physicians have been desperately needed for much longer. There was already a 15,000 shortfall of physicians in Germany in 2022 – and the trend is rising. In addition, there are currently considerable staff shortages in clinics, hospitals, medical care centres, medical practices that arise, for example, due to illness-related absences, holidays, short-term terminations as well as maternity or parental leave.
If medical facilities are faced with such a challenge, it is important to close this staff gap as quickly as possible in order to secure the medical care of patients. In these times, substitute physicians provide a remedy. Specialists in their field, they are employed for a limited period of time or booked by temporary employment.
As a personnel consultancy for physicians, we support you in bridging short-term personnel bottlenecks. We quickly and reliably provide you with substitute physicians who are exactly tailored to your requirements profile.
