Centre médico-social Martigny & Régions

What Centre médico-social Martigny & Régions does

Centre médico-social Martigny & Régions (CMS Martigny & Régions) is a Swiss non-profit association recognized as being of public utility that delivers and coordinates socio-health services across 17 communes in the Entremont, Martigny, and St-Maurice districts of Canton Valais. Organized around three pillars — Health (home-based nursing, palliative care, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, dietetics, practical help, medical-social apartments, home meals), Childhood (early-childhood consultations and the Maison Verte program), and Social services (material aid, personal support, socio-professional integration) — the organization employs 480 staff across 21 professional disciplines, serves 6,692 clients, and operates an annual budget of CHF 37.4 million.

Service delivery is field-based: multidisciplinary teams travel approximately 1.2 million kilometers per year to deliver care in clients' homes, coordinated through three physical sites in Martigny, Sembrancher (Entremont), and Saxon. The technology stack is conventional — tablets for field workers, patient management software, and a digital interdisciplinary coordination platform that links physicians, palliative care teams, ASSC, nurses, occupational therapists, and physiotherapists. No proprietary AI or advanced technology assets are disclosed.

The revenue model blends three streams: (1) public subsidies from Canton Valais and the 17 member communes (which cover the majority of operating costs because regulated tariffs do not), (2) reimbursements from basic Swiss health insurance (LAMal) at federally set rates (CHF 76.90/hour for evaluation, CHF 63/hour for examinations/treatments, CHF 52.60/hour for basic care, all requiring medical prescription), and (3) direct client contributions of CHF 30/hour for home-help services with means-tested reductions for AVS-age beneficiaries. Go-to-market is referral-driven, drawing clients through self-contact via phone, physician prescription, and hospital discharge planning, while institutional communication (website, Facebook, LinkedIn, community events such as Patient Safety Week) supports awareness. The organization is governed by a 7–9 member Committee of municipal representatives and a 5-member Direction, and holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, Valais Excellence, PRP Bientraitance, and ICH certifications.
