Résumé
Problems with the medical demographics related to the distribution of doctors in France, of which the Franche-Comte particularly suffers namely with regard to specialists, led the Regional Directorate for Health and Social Affairs and the Franche-Comtd University of Medicine and Pharmacy to ask the Regional Health Observatory to carry out a study. The study's objective was to quantify the number of specialists trained in Franche-Comte who are leaving the region to practice elsewhere and analyse the reasons for it. The results show that there has not been a massive drain of young practitioners, given that 59% of specialists trained in the region are still working there 2 years having finished their education and training programme. Whether or not they leave the region, the main incentives for choosing their place of practice are linked to their native region and job opportunities.
