Question 10310 — maternity health insurance

Summary

Ms. Julie Delpech draws the attention of the Minister of Health, Families, Autonomy and People with Disabilities to the draft decree discussed in recent weeks concerning the reimbursement of thermal treatments for patients with long-term illnesses (ALD). Currently covered at 100% when prescribed as part of the pathology, these cures would only be reimbursed up to 65%, i.e. the rate applied to common law. This prospect raises serious concerns among chronic patients, particularly those suffering from fibromyalgia or disabling pathologies, for whom cures often represent lasting relief, reducing the use of other, much more expensive care (hospitalizations, physiotherapy, pain consultations). The thermal sector also emphasizes that ALD patients represent nearly of a quarter of spa guests and that this development would weaken not only their access to care but also a sector which generates jobs and considerable economic benefits. The Court of Auditors recently recommended a review of the reimbursement of this treatment, on the grounds of therapeutic effectiveness deemed insufficiently demonstrated, even though their overall cost remains marginal in the national insurance expenditure objective. illness (0.1% of ONDAM). She asks him what means the Government intends to implement to guarantee that the access of chronically ill people to thermal cures is not called into question.
