For six weeks, the payment of daily allowances (work stoppages) by the Primary Health Insurance Fund (CPAM) has experienced major failures in Loire-Atlantique and Vendée, two pilot departments where new software is being implemented, a payment machine supposed to then be deployed throughout France.
“Today in Loire-Atlantique, the situation is not improving; She’s getting worse,” according to Pascal Cayeux, CGT delegate, despite the various fixes made to the Arpège software. The union announces a new demonstration, this Monday, November 18 at 11 a.m.
To deal with the most urgent, “at best, we pay deposits but without being certain that the exact amount is paid”, underlines Pascal Cayeux. Financial fixes will be forthcoming. In short, there will be surprises, good or bad, for those with social insurance. For the trade unionist, this automaton “is a real fiasco. It has thrown thousands of policyholders into unbearable distress.”
The writing ofWest France received new testimonies. Of a woman victim of a work accident who has still not been compensated. Or, that of a school catering agent, off work for almost a month and who finds himself without compensation or salary.
“How do these people manage to eat, pay their bills, simply survive. The bankers turn a deaf ear, this is none of their business and the fees and bans pile up,” an activist says indignantly.
The CGT “denounces the stubbornness of the National Health Insurance Fund in maintaining this devastating tool which sows misery among insured persons on sick leave and causes suffering at work for CPAM employees 44. »
And to call “policyholders to join the gatherings organized on Monday, November 18, at 11 a.m., on the Nantes (Beaulieu) and Saint-Nazaire sites.”
