The Caisse Primaire d’Assurance Maledie (CPAM) in Moselle manages a specialized local health insurance regime, overseeing a budget of €4 billion for the department in 2025. Fabien Badinier, speaking to Le Républicain Lorrain, confirmed that the organization serves residents through a network of 900 employees across five primary sites: Metz, Thionville, Forbach, Sarreguemines, and Sarrebourg.
Financial Scope of Moselle Healthcare Reimbursements
The primary responsibility of the CPAM in Moselle is the efficient reimbursement of medical expenses. According to the data shared with Le Républicain Lorrain, hospitals account for 50% of the total expenditures managed by the department. The remaining funds cover a broad spectrum of services, including pharmacy prescriptions, physician consultations, and medical transportation, which the agency processes directly.
Updated Medication Reimbursement Policies
Recent policy shifts have affected the coverage levels for certain medications. As of the current term, some drugs are no longer eligible for 100% reimbursement. For patients registered under an Affection de Longue Durée (ALD)—a classification for long-term chronic conditions—coverage for these specific items has been adjusted to 15%. This change applies to medications that have been determined to provide limited medical benefit.
