Health in french overseas territories

COUR DES COMPTES

On 12 June 2014, the Cour des comptes has released a report on Health in french overseas territories : The Republic's responsibility. The French Overseas Territories each have specific geographic, organisational and human characteristics, but they all face similar problems in the field of health, albeit to a various extent and with some local particularities. As mentioned in article 74 of the French Constitution, each territory falls under a tailored status that "takes account of the specific interests of each one within the Republic", but the Republic of France is nonetheless a single entity. Regardless of each territory’s political or administrative structures, the State is the ultimate guarantor of equal opportunity for all citizens in the health field.
