description PURPOSE: The global health workforce suffers long-term understaffing in remote and underserved areas. To attract young doctors for rural work, it is necessary to identify the main motivating factors. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The pilot survey with 201 general practitioner trainees in the Czech Republic was conducted using a structured questionnaire. The response rate was 67%. RESULTS: Not only financial support motivates general practitioner trainees for rural work. A combination of incentives from sources other than medical would greatly increase the chance for general practitioner trainees to work in rural regions. CONCLUSIONS: To what extent can the survey outcomes relate with other European regions needs to be investigated further.
