Gabriel Attal: French people who "skip" a medical appointment should pay 5 euros. The penalty will be 5 euros, if an appointment is not canceled at least 24 hours in advance.
The financial sanction will not be automatic, it will remain in the hands of the practitioner. “Legally, how do you prove that an appointment was not honored? It’s very complicated,” warns Jérôme Marty, president of the UFML-Syndicat.
