Question 21568 — people with disabilities

Summary

Ms. Nadia Ramassamy draws the attention of the Secretary of State to the Prime Minister, responsible for people with disabilities, to the difficulty of access to care for people with disabilities. 22% of people living with a disability were refused care during the first six months of 2019. Added to this illegal and discriminatory practice for these patients is the insufficient provision of care by relationships to their disabilities, the high level of expenses, the lack of coordination between the medical and social sectors and the unsuitability of the premises. These obstacles can lead to forgoing care and delays in care and consequently to the deterioration of the state of health of these patients living with a disability. Also, she notes that the training of health professionals on the care of people living with a disability is still in its infancy. Finally, France remains one of the rare countries to adopt the same pricing policy on procedures for people living with a disability or those without a disability and the financial needs necessary for the care of people with disabilities are not covered. Therefore, she asks him what the Government intends to do to guarantee inclusive access to care.
