Question 11941 — health establishments

Summary

Mr. Antoine Villedieu questions the Minister of Health, Families, Autonomy and People with Disabilities on the worrying situation of medical imaging within the Haute-Saône hospital group (GH70) and more particularly at the Gray hospital. The MP recalls that he had already intervened on this subject through an oral question without debate dated May 14, 2024, in order to alert the Government to the difficulties serious problems encountered by the medical imaging department of Gray hospital. On this occasion, the Government announced the reopening of the service according to a new organization from June 2024, as part of a partnership intended to “ensure all daytime activity”. However, it is clear that this commitment has not been respected. No effective measures were implemented on the announced date and it was only in October 2024 that a partial organization was deployed, several months late, without allowing the reestablishment of a normal and continuous service. The management of GH70, through the press in October 2024, announced the formation of an economic interest group (EIG) with the private group Cimrad, Tilleroyes imaging center in Besançon, allowing the provision of radiologists two days a week to from October 1, the rest of the activity must be ensured by the use of telemedicine. This organizational proposal was presented as a temporary solution intended to manage a crisis situation, pending a complete and lasting recovery of the medical imaging service and was not intended to become a lasting organization. In fact, the imaging offer at Gray hospital remains largely insufficient. Currently, only one weekly consultation is provided, on Tuesdays, by a radiologist from Besançon. Furthermore, certain examinations, notably mammograms, cannot always be interpreted on site, forcing patients to travel to Vesoul or Besançon, i.e. additional travel of 45 to 64 kilometers. In addition, according to an internal source, nearly 250 appointments are currently pending, reflecting a worrying lengthening of processing times. This situation directly affects access to care, in particular for the elderly, vulnerable patients or those without a transport solution and poses a real risk to the continuity and quality of screening and monitoring of pathologies, particularly oncological ones. In this context, he asks her if she will communicate to him and take, without delay, a concrete decision to guarantee the daily presence of a radiologist at Gray hospital, to put an end to the persistent discontinuity of the medical imaging service and finally to ensure the immediate reduction of waiting times, the systematic interpretation of examinations as well as effective respect for the principle of equal access to care for the inhabitants of the Graylois basin and, more broadly, of Haute-Saône.
