“With the municipal mutual, I save 18 euros each month and I have more interesting conditions, better care than with my current mutual”, assures Martine, a 68-year-old from Toulouse. Launched on January 17, the partnership between the town hall of Toulouse and the mutual Just, for seniors over 60, has found its audience. Nearly 437 people, 66.6% women and 33.4% men, subscribed to this mutual insurance company, which offers prices on average 30% cheaper than conventional mutual insurance companies for seniors with an income of less than 1,800 euros. net per month. It is aiming for a thousand members by the end of the year.
“The Just mutual is a non-profit company, part of the social and solidarity economy since the profits are reinvested either in the reduction of members’ contributions, or in the increases in guarantees, details Camille Bouez, itinerant adviser of Just which offers several hotlines every week in about fifteen places in the Pink City. Many seniors do not have mutual insurance and it is to this public that we are addressing ourselves. The average age of members is 71 years old. »
After knowing the communal mutual insurance company through the city services, Martine, a former employee in a mutual insurance company, came to find out more during a visit to the Salle du Sénéchal, a stone’s throw from the Capitol. “The health insurance that I currently have is not terrible, especially for dependency benefits and I fear that my contributions will increase at the age of 70, so I’ll find out now,” says this sixty-year-old. The fact that there is an agreement between this mutual insurance company and the town hall is a guarantee of trust and quality of service. For example, it is more interesting for me for glasses and dental care. Created in Hauts-de-France, Just has recruited ten people locally for this partnership in Toulouse.
