The price of a consultation with a general practitioner will increase to 30 euros in December, according to a draft agreement between unions and Health Insurance

The price of a consultation with a general practitioner will increase to 30 euros in December, according to a draft agreement finalized by Health Insurance and the unions of private doctors on Friday May 17. This draft agreement must now be ratified by a sufficiently representative group of unions to enter into force.

The text also provides for upgrades for specialists and collective commitments for access to care. The doctors and the Cnam (National Health Insurance Fund) met on Thursday and Friday for a final price negotiation session. Discussions were suspended at the beginning of April for lack of proposals deemed sufficient by the unions.
