27 chapters, 101 recommendations, 1,300 pages: in its latest annual report, the Court of Auditors highlights in turn urban parking, the National Order of Dental Surgeons, the treatment of household waste in Ile-de-France, the continuing professional training of employees but also the dysfunctions of the National Victims Compensation Office (Oniam), an organization that deals in particular with compensation claims from victims of the Mediator or victims infected with hepatitis C during blood transfusions, according to The world.
Doubts for Depakine victims
Increasingly long processing times (the average duration of the procedure is two years and nine months), decreasing amount of compensation, recovery procedures from insurers put in place slowly … All these dysfunctions have “heavy consequences for the victims”, underlines the Court for whom “in the current state of its management, it would be adventurous to entrust Oniam with the mission of compensating the victims of the Dépakine“.
However, it is a mission that the deputies have set for Oniam and which should be effective from next June.
Following the publication of this report, the Ministry of Health replaced the director of Oniam with the current deputy director at the general direction of the High Authority for Health (HAS).
