HEALTH – “I can tell you that contraception will now be free for all women up to the age of 25.” Here is what the Minister of Health and Solidarity announced this Thursday, September 9 on France 2 Olivier Véran, as part of the political interview “Les 4 Vérités”.
Introducing himself as “the minister of new social security rights”, he detailed what this meant, namely the assumption by the Social Security “of the contraception hormonal, of the biological assessment which can go with it, of the consultation of prescription and of all the care related to this contraception. ”
In addition and as subsequently confirmed by several specialists on the subject to the Ministry of Health, starting with the podcast “Menstrual”, Olivier Véran’s announcement – even if the Minister did not say so clearly during the interview – covers all female contraception without distinction and not just hormonal means. As detailed with the HuffPost the ministry, this means that the pills and the implants will be taken care of, but also the IUDs or the diaphragms.
Fight against an “unbearable” situation
To justify his decision, the Minister of Health explained that he saw “a decline in contraception in a certain number of young women”, for financial reasons. An “unbearable” situation for Olivier Véran. “It is an effort of 21 million euros which will be made from this year, and which will make it possible from 1 January to strengthen this.”
As for the age limit of 25 years, the minister specified that “it is an age which corresponds in terms of social life, economic life and income to an age going with more autonomy”. He also recalled that this is the moment when French women leave their parents’ complementary health insurance and relied on “studies” to describe an age below which renouncing contraception because of its cost are the most common. more frequent.
This free contraception existed until then for minors (since 2013 for 15-18 year olds, and since 2020 for those under 20). As AFP notes, this has since allowed the rate of abortion (voluntary termination of pregnancy) to drop significantly within this age group, from 9.5 to 6 per 1,000 between 2012 and 2018. .
