[Experiments to renew the organization of care]. / Expérimenter pour renouveler l'organisation des soins.

While the need to test new ways of organizing our healthcare system has long been recognized, successive initiatives have not always been up to the challenge. Drawing lessons from past experiences, as well as foreign examples, Article 51 of the Social Security Financing Act for 2018 created a new framework for innovative health experiments. Actors in the field now have the opportunity to develop innovative projects while relying on a support and evaluation system for the duration of their trials, according to a logic of co-construction between all stakeholders.

[Status of experiments conducted since 2018 and the place of nurses]. / État des lieux des expérimentations menées depuis 2018 et place des infirmiers.

Four years after the launch of Article 51, more than 1,000 projects have been submitted. Among them, 118 experiments have been authorized, enabling the treatment of one million patients throughout France. These experiments are very diverse and cover many of the issues facing our healthcare system. Nurses play a central role, combining care, coordination, specialized care and access to new missions.
