Abstract

European countries, including France, have experienced a strong gain in life expectancy due to advances in science and health policy implemented in last 60 years. However, even if several devices have main role to reduce social inequalities in health care provision trying to diversify to meet different kinds of people, we still found strong disparities in terms of: use of care, medical consumption, and between social groups.
