The SAS approves the commissions for the health transfer tender A1

The General Directorate of Personnel of the Andalusian Health Service has approved the composition of the Assessment Committees that will evaluate the merits of the transfer competition for health categories belonging to subgroup A1. The decision was adopted via Resolution of September 10, 2026, published in the Official Gazette of the Junta de Andalucía (BOJA) number 180, of September 16, 2026, under text no. 11887, spanning ten pages.

A decisive step for health personnel mobility

The transfer competition is the ordinary procedure through which health professionals in the Andalusian public system can change their destination, allowing them to move closer to their place of residence or improve their working conditions. The approval of the assessment committees is a prior and indispensable requirement for the process to move forward, as these collegiate bodies will be responsible for scoring the merits submitted by each applicant.

The resolution is framed within the Competitive examinations, competitions, and other calls section of the Authorities and personnel part of the gazette, within the jurisdictional scope of the Ministry of Presidency, Health, and Emergencies. Subgroup A1 groups the highest qualified health categories, including specialist physicians and other senior technical profiles of the Andalusian public health system.

Composition and functions of the committees

The Assessment Committees are the technical bodies that guarantee the objectivity and transparency of the competition, as they are responsible for applying the merit scales established in the rules of the call. Their composition, now approved, determines who will integrate these bodies and, therefore, who will evaluate the applications of the thousands of professionals participating in the process.

Among the functions these committees will assume, the following stand out:

• The assessment of professional, educational, and seniority merits of each applicant.
• The preparation of the provisional and final destination allocation lists.
• The resolution of allegations submitted by interested parties during the process.
• The proposal for the allocation of the positions offered in the competition.

A process with wide impact

The transfer competition for health categories of subgroup A1 affects a very high number of professionals from the Andalusian Health Service, who see this procedure as the way to consolidate their destination or move closer to their family and personal environment. The publication of the composition of the assessment committees represents a concrete advance in the processing of the procedure, which adds to other resolutions in the same gazette regarding provisional and final lists of various selection processes in the health sector.

BOJA number 180 also includes, in the same section, other resolutions from the General Directorate of Personnel of the Andalusian Health Service, such as the provisional lists of candidates who passed the competitive examination for Specialist Nurse in Obstetric-Gynecological Nursing (Midwife) and Area Specialist Physician in Cardiology, as well as the final lists for Specialist Technician in Radiodiagnosis and Admission and Clinical Documentation Physician, all of which were called in development of the Public Employment Offers for the years 2022, 2023, and 2024.

Relevance for healthcare professionals

The approval of the evaluation committees for the transfer competition of subgroup A1 is a milestone that clears the way for thousands of Andalusian healthcare professionals to have their mobility resolved. With this step, the Andalusian Health Service advances in the processing of a procedure that affects not only the working conditions of physicians and senior technicians but also the organization of human resources in healthcare centers throughout Andalusia, with the consequent impact on the quality of care received by patients.
