Question 14546 — health establishments

Summary

Mr. Jean-Jacques Gaultier draws the attention of the Minister of Solidarity and Health to the creation of low-cost dental centers assimilated to associative care centers governed by Law 1901. A report from the General Inspectorate of Social Affairs (IGAS), published in January 2017, indicates that in certain cases, the founders or managers of these centers are also the managers of the commercial companies which provide them, or are in charge of hands of financial structures or satellite services domiciled abroad, which diverts the non-profit aim sought. This report also demonstrates that the economic model of associative dental health centers actually leads to an orientation of their activity towards implantology, which is highly profitable. Many other risk situations are mentioned, such as over-treatment, prescription of better care paid to the detriment of the patient's health or even chain care provided by dental surgeons under pressure from managers. Knowing that the unregulated progression of these dental health centers was 25% from 2011 to 2016, he asks what avenues have been or will be taken by the Government to ensure legal, financial and health regulations to guarantee the safety of care delivered to users.
