Revenue model

1. Healthcare Insurance Reimbursement (Assurance Maladie): SAD Soins, ESA (Equipe Spécialisée Alzheimer), and ESPRAD services are fully covered at 100% by the French national health insurance (Assurance Maladie). No advance payment required from beneficiaries. Revenue is generated through reimbursements from public health insurance systems.
2. Government Subsidized Home Care (APA/PCH): SAD (Service Autonomie à Domicile) aide services are partially funded through public financial assistance programs including APA (Allocation Personnalisée d'Autonomie) for elderly and PCH (Prestation de Compensation du Handicap) for disabled persons. Beneficiaries may pay partial costs with subsidies covering the remainder.
3. Mandataire Services Fees: The SAD Mandataire service provides administrative support to beneficiaries who employ home care workers directly. The association handles payroll, contracts, and social declarations in exchange for service fees, while beneficiaries pay worker salaries (often subsidized through APA/PCH).
