The record deficit of the Safely (52 billion euros) due to the Covid-19 crisis will plunge all its branches in the red this year, primarily health insurance, according to a summary by the Accounts Commission of the social Security.

None will be spared: for the first time since 2012, the four branches of social security will be in deficit in 2020, weighed down by the coronavirus, containment and the resulting recession, with "a sharp contraction in revenue" (contributions, taxes ) estimated at 42.8 billion euros.

The disease branch will suffer "the most spectacular deterioration", with an estimated deficit of 31.1 billion, also widened by "a sharp rise in expenses".

The “exceptional measures” decided during the crisis (masks and equipment purchases, bonuses and overtime, work stoppages, screening tests, etc.) will indeed cost “around 12 billion”, partially offset by a drop of 4 billion spending on city care (private doctors, physiotherapists, dentists, nurses, pharmacies, etc.).

Even that of accidents at work

The retirement sector will record a loss of 14.9 billion, mainly linked to the "fall in revenue", even if its accounts had already turned red last year, despite the virtual freezing of pensions.

The family branch, in the green for two years at the cost of repeated planes on benefits, will also plunge (-3.1 billion), although its spending will fall further "slightly".

Even the small “accidents at work” branch, which has been in surplus for seven years, will not escape it (-0.7 billion) despite a “decrease in claims during the confinement period”. Finally, the chronically deficit old-age solidarity fund (FSV) will post a negative balance of 2.1 billion, mainly due to the revaluation of the minimum old-age pension.
