Reimbursement of dental care cut from 70% to 60%

The order of 12 October 2023, issued by the ministers for health and public accounts because the national union of health insurance funds did not decide within the deadline, raises from 30% to 40% the patient co-payment on dentists' fees and dental care, except for prevention procedures defined by another order. The health insurance reimbursement rate thus falls from 70% to 60% on 15 October 2023.
