The decision on whether or not to issue an authorisation and permission to work independently as a medical doctor (and a specialist title if you have applied for this) will be made as soon as possible after all necessary documents have been received. Normally you can expect to get an answer from the Danish Patient Safety Authority within 3 months.
In case of rejection
If the Danish Patient Safety Authority decides to reject your application, you will receive a reasoned decision. If you disagree with the decision to refuse your application, you have the right to file a complaint.
Your complaint should be addressed to the Ministry of Health, Holbergsgade 6, 1027 Copenhagen K, sum@sum.dk. You can also send your complaint with digital post or to sum@sum.dk.
The Ministry of Health can decide on the legal basis of the decision and whether the administrative procedures have been correctly observed. However, the Ministry of Health cannot make a decision concerning the assessment of your professional qualifications on which the decision has been based.
