What Centre hospitalier d’Arpajon does

Centre hospitalier d'Arpajon (CHA) is a French public hospital establishment (établissement public de santé, Finess 910000272) located at 18 avenue de Verdun, 91290 Arpajon, Essonne, in the Île-de-France region. It operates a 24/7 emergency department, a type 2 maternity unit, outpatient consultations across approximately 25 medical and surgical specialties, a day hospital (médecine polyvalente), and a comprehensive geriatric and palliative care platform comprising EHPAD Le Village (120 places), a USLD (48 beds across two wings), an enhanced Alzheimer's housing unit UHR (13 beds), a dedicated palliative care unit USP (10 beds, operational since 2009), labeled memory consultations, an Alzheimer's day care, a respite platform, a mobile geriatric team (EMG) and a mobile palliative care team (EMASP). It also operates a clinical research function coordinated with CHSF.

Since May 2023 the hospital has been managed under a direction commune with the Centre hospitalier Sud Francilien (CHSF), based in Corbeil-Essonnes, sharing governance under Director General François Bérard, a clinical research unit, and a Fonds de dotation established in February 2018 and extended to CHA in May 2023. CHA participates in the GHT Île-de-France Sud and is regulated by the ARS Île-de-France. A second site at Égly (5 minutes from the main site) houses the gerontology pole, including EHPAD Le Village and palliative care units. In October 2024 EHPAD Le Village inaugurated a new wing raising capacity to 120 places, and in late May 2025 the level-2 admissions hall began modernization for full accessibility.

CHA is funded principally by the French Assurance Maladie under the regulated public hospital pricing framework (T2A-style reimbursement, 80% standard / 100% for ALD, qualifying acts over €91 and maternity up to 12 days), supplemented by patient co-payments, the departmental forfait journalier and ancillary services (individual room upgrades via HAPPYTAL, TV/telephone via SOFRA). Pricing is administered by the Conseil Départemental and the national payer framework. Patients access services via walk-in emergency, scheduled consultations (by phone or Doctolib), pre-admission for residential care, and ARS-directed public health pathways.

2. Daily rate (forfait journalier) and co-payments: Patients contribute a daily hospital fee (forfait journalier) covering accommodation costs. Additional co-payments (ticket modérateur) apply for acts over €120. These are either paid by the patient directly or covered by their mutual insurance.
