The House of Representatives adopted, on Monday by a majority, the bill on the basic medical coverage bill.
Presented by the Minister of Health and Social Protection, Khaled Ait Taleb, the bill aims to implement the project of social protection and reform of the health system in its segment relating to the generalization of basic compulsory health insurance (AMO), by abolishing the Medical Assistance Scheme (RAMED) and replacing it with a compulsory health insurance scheme dedicated to people unable to ensure the payment of contributions.
The bill provides that RAMED beneficiaries will automatically benefit from the AMO dedicated to people unable to pay the membership fees, while preserving all the benefits offered by RAMED.
Under this legislation, the State covers the total amount of AMO subscriptions, as well as the part remaining to be paid by the insured persons for services received in public health institutions.
In order to benefit from the services of the new scheme, whose management is entrusted to the National Social Security Fund (CNSS), the bill requires the adoption of the Unified Social Register.
The AMO allows the insured to benefit from the same basket of care, by generalizing medical transport services between hospitals to all insured.
In addition, the bill allows for the creation of a compulsory health insurance scheme for people who do not belong to any compulsory health insurance scheme and are able to pay their contributions.
