What Agecsa - Centres De Sante De Grenoble does

AGECSA (Association de Gestion des Centres de Santé de Grenoble) is a French non-profit association (loi 1901, SIRET 38207709700014) operating since 1973 a network of five multidisciplinary community health centers in Grenoble, located within all four priority urban neighborhoods (QPV). It delivers pluri-professional primary care across general medicine, pediatrics, nursing (including the ASALEE chronic-disease protocol), midwifery, speech therapy, psychiatry and psychology, nutritional care, and therapeutic education for chronic conditions such as diabetes and obesity.

The organization runs on the CHORUS/ICT practice-management and patient-records platform, accepts online appointment booking via Doctolib, and extends preventive and educational activities beyond the physical centers into daycare facilities, schools, and parent-child spaces. It operates as a recognized "lieu de formation" for medical, nursing, and administrative trainees, and is governed by a General Director (with a newly created Deputy General Director role) and a board, with a formal Users Committee (Comité des Usagers) embedded in decision-making.

Commercially, AGECSA practices tiers payant intégral (universal third-party payment), billing French Sécurité Sociale and supplemental insurers directly for covered services, with a supplementary revenue line of municipal and departmental subsidies funding its public-health mission. With approximately 100 staff (75 FTE), an annual budget of €5.5 million, and roughly 18,000 patient files per year, the organization is locally mid-sized, geographically concentrated in Grenoble, and structurally positioned as a social-economy enterprise rather than a profit-generating entity.
