The price of a consultation with a general practitioner will increase to 30 euros from December 22, compared to 26.50 euros currently.
In less than a month and with the end of year holidays approaching, the French must prepare for a change in their daily lives. The price of a general practitioner consultation will increase to 30 euros from December 22, compared to 26.50 euros currently.
An increase announced last June following an agreement between Health Insurance and private doctors. The negotiations initiated in November 2023, between the two parties, result from a inflation and a constant increase in the costs of general practitioners, but also a lack of practitioners in certain regions.
Note that, for children under 6 years old, the consultation will increase to 35 euros, compared to 31.50 euros until now.
Pediatrician, gynecologist, psychiatrist…
This agreement, valid for five years, is accompanied by an increase – from 1 to 2 euros – in the fixed contribution, “that is to say the patient's contribution which is not subject to reimbursement of the 'Health insurance or complementary health insurance', specifies the Service-public website.
In addition to general practitioners, the cost of a consultation with the pediatrician will increase to 39 euros for a child under 2 years old from December 22. “ The coordinated consultation with the psychiatrist, neuropsychiatrist or neurologist, set at 51.70 euros, will increase to 55 euros in December to reach 57 euros in July 2025.
A consultation with the gynecologist will, finally, not be the same price since the amount, currently set at 31.50 euros, will reach 37 euros from December.
