An expected increase in rates mutual

Because Social Security deficits follow and increase each year, it tries every means to limit the damage, even ignore "access to care and health for all". Today, there is a gradual decrease in the support offered by Social Security, and that all areas (hospital care, drugs, retirement etc.).. All eyes then turned to each other:

A treatment that falls more into the hands of mutual

As usual, mutual reinforcement still facing Social Security, to supplement the inadequate reimbursement of the latter. And also wanting to help people, mutuals have a duty to respond to the gradual withdrawal of social security, including providing support for acts of care and neglect. In other words, the decline in 2011 reimbursements of medical drugs to moderate, some medical consultations, and certain acts and hospital care, will inevitably cause an increase of support from each other.

This increase in management course will involve some increase in prices with each other, according to Jean-Martin Cohen Solal (Director General of French Mutual), could be around 8%. Indeed, mutuals can not afford to run a deficit. And if an increase in support is thus provided, the premium increase will be inevitable. In other words, the management of health care and acts more and more fall into the hands of each other, and the rates increase with each other as Social Security is gradually withdrawing.

Faced with this, several questions arise: What will he our French health care system? Are we moving towards privatization of health insurance? What about the fight for "access to care and health for all", and the fight against social inequalities?
