Question 37680 — higher education

Summary

Mr. André Villiers alerts the Minister of Higher Education, Research and Innovation on the implementation of the health studies reform and the achievement of some of its objectives. Provided for by Chapter 1 of Title 1 of Law No. 2019-774 of July 24, 2019 relating to the organization and transformation of the health system, the health studies reform which entered into force in September 2020 overhauls the training courses. The reform also removes the numerus clausus to increase the number of trained doctors and thus contribute to the fight against medical deserts from which rural areas suffer. Its attention is drawn by the national collective PASS LAS which regrets that the repeaters of the old system (the ex-PACES) and the first students of the new system (the new PASS) will have to share for this transition year a quota of places which would fall short of expectations. He therefore calls for more resources to be mobilized to increase reception capacities and ensure fair treatment of the first post-reform generation. Students and parents of students also complain about the increase in the PASS program due to the doubling of the course without the planned reduction in the medical program. He asks him what measures the The government intends to take, and according to what timetable, to achieve the objectives pursued by the reform of health studies. But above all, it asks questions around the effect of the reform. Increasing the number of places in the second year by 10% does not ensure fair treatment of the 2021 class compared to the class that preceded it and especially that which will succeed it when there are no more repeaters. Born Should we not give as a slogan and finance in all universities an increase not of 10% but of more than 50% in the quotas of future doctors, in order to offer the PASS LAS class in 2021 the same number of places in the 2nd year as the future class of 2022? Alone, an increase of more than 50% can have rapid and useful effects. In these times of covid-19, everyone is convinced that we must act quickly and well to be effective on the future presence of doctors throughout the territory. In these times of covid-19, parents of medical students cannot imagine seeing their children succeed in their first semester with an average of 15, being ranked 144th and seeing the university respond that it stops granting passage to the 2nd year of medicine, from the 100th candidate accepted. Families are outraged to see quotas increased in certain universities but not in all and in different proportions each time. France therefore seems paralyzed by dated and grotesque administrative behavior. Does the “new flash mission” really have the means to quickly modify these quotas? Could this flash mission grant universities the budget increase provided for in the reform so that they have the means to create the necessary number of places? He It is indeed a question, here and now, of restoring fairness for students who will have demonstrated this year their resilience, their unfailing motivation, their capacity for work. Here and now, it is a question of allowing France to regain in 10 years the medical fabric which will enable it to ensure the health of its fellow citizens, particularly in rural areas. He wants to know his opinion on the subject.
