Complementary health solidarity: the ceilings of resources to benefit from it evolve
Publié le 01 avril 2026 - Public Service / Directorate of Legal and Administrative Information (Prime Minister)
If you have modest resources, you can benefit from the complementary health solidarity to be helped in your health expenses. Depending on the level of your income, the device is free or paid. The resource ceilings for eligibility were increased on 1er April 2026.

Depending on your resources, complementary health solidarity (C2S):
- costs you nothing;
- costs less than €1 per day per person.
The resource ceilings to be eligible for the scheme were increased on 1er April 2026.
Number of persons in the household | Annual limit of resources to benefit from C2S without financial participation on your part | Annual ceiling of resources to benefit from C2S with a financial contribution from you |
1 person | €10,421 | between 10 421 € and 14 069 € |
2 people | €15,632 | between 15 632 € and 21 103 € |
3 people | €18,758 | between 18 758 € and 25 324 € |
4 people | €21,885 | between €21 885 and €29 544 |
More than 4 people | €21,885 + €4,169 for each additional member of the household | €29,544 + €5,628 for each additional member of the household |
Please note
To know the resource ceilings applied specifically in Alsace-Moselle, in the overseas departments and regions or in Mayotte, you can consult the public service sheet dedicated to solidarity-based complementary health.
The resources taken into account to determine your eligibility for the supplementary solidarity health insurance are those that you received during the 12 months preceding the penultimate month of your application. For example, for a request made in April 2026, the reference period for taking into account your resources is 1er March 2025 to February 28, 2026.
You can check your eligibility for the solidarity complementary health insurance thanks to a simulator of the portal mesdroitssociaux.gouv.fr.
The request for complementary health solidarity can be made:
- online, on your ameli account (or on your private space of the Mutualité sociale agricole, if you are dependent on this plan);
- by sending to your health insurance fund a application form completed and accompanied by the required supporting documents.
You can also establish a power of attorney so that a third party makes the request on your behalf at a reception point.
After receiving your application, your health insurance fund will review your application within 2 months and inform you of its decision.
If your application is accepted, your entire household benefits from the complementary health solidarity, in other words:
- yourself;
- your spouse, cohabiting partner or Civil partnership partner (civil solidarity pact);
- dependants under 25 years of age.
Reminder
The solidarity supplementary health insurance allows you to pay the part of your health expenses not covered by the compulsory health insurance.
Thanks to it, you can therefore benefit from coverage of all your expenses, without having to advance them, for a number of medical services (medicines, medical consultations, hospitalizations, certain glasses, certain hearing aids, certain dental prostheses, etc.).
