consultations will cost 1.5 euro more

As of this autumn, the price of consultation with doctors will increase by 1 euro 50. It will therefore go from 25 euros today to 26 euros 50. An unacceptable fact for a doctor in Paris. “It’s really not a big deal and when we also learn that we have to wait until October for it to apply… Allow me, but it’s almost laughable on the part of the government”, he says. He is already thinking of increasing his prices even if his health insurance prohibits it. “It is possible that as of next Monday, the rates will increase at my office”he adds.

He wants a price of 30 euros

In his office, the general practitioner wishes to switch to a price of 30 euros. His patients would therefore have to pay five euros out of their pocket. A sum that some say they are ready to pay. “If I come to the doctor, it’s because I really need it”, comments a patient. The increase of 1 euro 50 also concerns specialists. The price of the consultation will increase with them from 30 to 31 euros.
