Abstract

We present in this paper some characteristics of the interactions between the private and public sectors in health systems in four countries, with a particular emphasis on the case of France. The objective is simply to contribute to overcoming the most important impediment to a betterment of the health system in Québec and Canada, namely the irrational opposition of numerous political and special interest groups to a significant presence of private health care insurers and providers in our health system. We will document the significant presence of the private for profit sector in the French health care and hospital care system.

Nous présentons dans ce cahier quelques caractéristiques des interactions entre le privé et le public dans les systèmes de santé de quatre pays, avec une emphase particulière sur le cas de la France. L’objectif poursuivi est tout simplement de contribuer à crever et guérir l’abcès le plus important empêchant l’amélioration du système de santé québécois et canadien, à savoir l’opposition irrationnelle de plusieurs groupes politiques et groupes de pression à une présence significative et intégrée d’établissements et d’entreprises de soins de santé, d’assurance ou de fourniture directe, à but lucratif ou non, dans notre système de santé. Nous documenterons ici la présence très importante du secteur privé à but lucratif dans le système de santé en France, en particulier dans le secteur des soins hospitaliers.
