CPTS: a collective of health professionals serving patients

Territorial professional health communities (CPTS) are organizations led by health professionals in a defined territory. Their aim is to provide answers to the health problems of the population they cover and to the needs of health professionals.

The CPTS Croix-Rousse Presqu’île covers a population of 97,000 inhabitants, spread over 3 districts: the 1st arrondissement, the 2nd arrondissement and the 4th arrondissement of Lyon. It brings together 78 member health professionals, including 16 masseurs-physiotherapists and 10 speech therapists.

The CPTS Multiprofessional Care of Vaulx-en-Velin covers a population of 51,800 inhabitants. It brings together 56 member health professionals, including 13 general practitioners and 10 state-certified nurses.

Support from Health Insurance and the Regional Health Agency

Health Insurance and the Regional Health Agency (ARS) support these organizations and allow them, through the Interprofessional Conventional Agreement (ACI), to benefit from significant funding to help them deploy their actions.

Each of these CPTS obtained funding of €15,000 from the ARS to help with the start-up and structuring of their project.

The signing of the ACI contract this Friday, December 22 alongside the Caisse primary d’Assurance Maladie du Rhône (CPAM) and the ARS allows the CPTS to implement their health project. They can benefit from annual funding from the CPAM du Rhône of up to:

  • €457,500 for the CPTS Croix-Rousse Presqu’île,
  • €382,500 for the CPTS Multiprofessional Care Vaulx-en-Velin.

A desire to respond to major health issues in the region

These two CPTS aim to reduce the number of patients without a treating doctor in their territory. To do this, they intend to identify doctors still accepting patients or promote innovative systems such as cooperation protocols, medical assistants or even Advanced Practice Nurses (IPA).

The CPTS have been a strong link in the management of the health crisis. They are therefore all keen to build an action plan allowing them to be included in the response to future serious health crises.

A health project adapted to the needs of the population

To build a health project adapted to the needs of the population, each CPTS, accompanied by the CPAM du Rhône and the ARS, conducts an in-depth study of the demographic situation in its territory and proposes actions with regard to the problems identified.

To do this, it will develop strong cooperation with the Le Vinatier Hospital Center.

For this, it will mobilize its entire network of doctors, physiotherapists, midwives, pharmacies, gynecologists and partner maternity wards in the region.

She also plans to work to facilitate the return home of elderly people following hospitalization.
