Theme

Our country’s healthcare system is a paradox. Its peculiarities attract the attention, and often the interest, of many observers. From Villermé to French doctors, French healthcare has gained international acclaim. From Social Security to CMU (universal health cover) and now PUMA (universal health protection), the organization of our social protection against illness bears witness to a remarkable hybridization between the professional and universalist reasoning which inspire it.

From the doctrine of humanizing hospitals to the 2002 assertion by the legislature of an ambition of “health democracy”, the movement for the rights of the ill has made significant steps. Yet health policy struggles to find its place in political debates while the healthcare system is faced with unprecedented threats. The public health boom, reconsideration of the French medical model, democratization of health action, the reclaiming of health insurance: the new challenges in health policy are multiple, crucial and very real.
