Positions

After completing advanced training (post-university modular training (PumA), including, among other things, operational, leadership and language training), staff physicians are initially employed for two years as assistant physicians in the armed forces hospitals. There the young doctors gain their first clinical experience and acquire specialist knowledge in rescue medicine .

During this time, medical officers are also called on for missions abroad , where they are deployed, for example, as assistant doctors in field hospitals or as emergency doctors in mobile medical teams.

The decisive legal basis for the appointment as medical officer is the Soldier Career Ordinance (SLV) and, in addition, the Central Service Regulations (ZDv) 20/7.

Prerequisite is the membership of one of the runways for medical officers and the approval as a doctor or dentist .

Medical officer candidates usually finish their medical or dental studies at a civil university with the rank of lieutenant ( at sea ) and are promoted to medical staff with their license to practice medicine . Employment with the rank of medical officer is also possible with a qualification corresponding to the assignment .

A medical officer is paid A 13 according to the federal salary regulations (BBesO) . Medical officers of this rank receive a higher basic salary than other captains of the same rank .
