NEVER PERFORMED AN ACCURATE SURVEY
YES, EACH TRAINING CENTRE MUST PASS A NATIONAL ACCREDITATION PROCEDURE AND PERFORM A QUALITY CERTIFICATION (INTRODUCED IN 2017, 3 YEARS OF IMPLEMENTING, ACTUALLY NOT COMPLETELY ACTIVE). SITE VISITS ARE ONGOING.
UNTIL 2019A NATIONAL RECERTIFICATION SCHEME IS REQUESTED TO PRACTICE AFTER MEDICAL DEGREE. IT IS MADE UP OF TWO PARTS: THE FIRST ONE IS A 3 MONTHS’ PRACTICE: ONE MONTH OF CLINICAL PRACTICE, ONE MONTH OF SURGICAL PRACTICE AND ONE MONTH OF GENERAL MEDICINE; THE SECOND ONE IS A THEORICAL TEST, THAT IS DONE IN EACH UNIVERSITY. AFTER 2019 THE POSTGRADUATE INTERNSHIP HAS BEEN ABOLISHED, MEDICAL GRADUATES WILL PERFORM THE TEST RIGHT AFTER GRADUATION. Where else can we find more information? HTTP://WWW.MIUR.IT/0006MENU_C/0012DOCUME/0098NORMAT/1300REGOLA.HTM
THE APPLICATION PROCEDURE TO ACCESS TO THE TRAINEE IS THE SAME, BECAUSE OF IS A NATIONAL PROCEDURE. THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS THAT IN CASE OF QUALIFICATION TO MEDICAL PRACTICE, OBTAINED ABORAD, IT IS REQUIRED THE POSSESSION OF THE DECREE OF RECOGNITION OF THE TITLE FOR THE PURPOSES OF THE EXERCISE OF THE MEDICAL PROFESSION ISSUED BY THE MINISTRY OF HEALTH. DIFFERENCES ARE INTENDED FOR EXTRA EU/EEA DOCTORS. Where else can we find more information? HTTP://WWW.SALUTE.GOV.IT/PROFESSIONISANITARIEPUBBLICO/
THERE IS NOT RESTRICTION.
IT IS POSSIBLE, FOR A TRAINEE UNDERGOING TRAINING IN ANOTHER EU/EEA COUNTRY, DO A PART OF HIS TRAINING IN ITALY. IT IS NECESSARY TO TAKE CONTACT DIRECTLY WITH PH., COMMUNICATE THE ITALIAN TRAINING PERIOD TO THE UNIVERSITY SECRETARY AND DO A MALPRACTICE AND ACCIDENTS INSURANCE.
In other words, please describe, in general terms, the training of a junior doctor in your country. TO ACHIEVE THE MEDICAL DEGREE, THERE ARE 3 SESSIONS A YEAR, GENERALLY MARCH, JULY AND OCTOBER. THEN, IT IS NECESSARY TO TAKE THE MEDICAL PRACTICE CERTIFICATION AFTER 3 MONTHS OF MEDICAL PRACTICE AND THE SUBSEQUENT THORICAL TEST, OF WHICH ARE PROGRAMMED TWO SESSIONS A YEAR (GENERALLY FEBRUARY AND NOVEMBER). AFTERWARDS, IT IS POSSIBLE TO TRY THE NATIONAL TEST TO ACCESS TO THE MEDICAL TRAINING, EXPECTED FOR JULY OR SEPTEMBER. EACH TRAINING HAS A VARIABLE DURATION BETWEEN 3 AND 5 YEARS.

Malpractice insurance for slight to moderate damages to patients is offered by the hospital or structure where the residency is being completed. However, the Italian law requires personal professional insurance for gross negligence or malpractice (Legge Gelli 24/2017), which costs ranges based on sums covered, but ranges around 100e at the current moment for non surgical fields.
IT IS VERY COMMON THE EMIGRATION OF ITALIAN MEDICAL TRAINEES TO FOREIGN COUNTRIES BECAUSE OF THE TRAINING FUNNEL, FOR WHICH MORE OVER 7000 DOCTORS CAN’T ACCESS TO THE MEDICAL TRAINEES. FOR EXAMPLE, THIS YEAR 15.000 DOCTORS WILL TRY TO ACCESS TO THE MEDICAL TRAINEES, BUT THERE ARE ONLY 6200 SCHOLARSHIP.
