France will deploy 2,000 "Maisons France Santé" by summer to combat medical deserts, offering local healthcare access. These centers will feature a doctor and nurse, provide no-extra-charge consultations, operate five days a week, and offer appointments within 48 hours, sometimes utilizing pharmacies. The initiative receives 130 million euros in state funding, though some public hospital federations deem it insufficient.
