Dr. Charlotte Berthaut of Dépist&vous has called for preventative healthcare to be restructured as a service accessible to all people, according to La Veille Acteurs de Santé. This approach seeks to eliminate barriers to early detection and health maintenance across diverse populations.
Expanding Access to Preventative Care
The core of the proposal is to shift the delivery of preventative health from a fragmented process into a universal service. According to Dr. Berthaut, the goal is to ensure that health screenings and preventative measures are not limited by socio-economic or geographic barriers.
Prevention must be made into a service accessible to one and all.

By framing prevention as a service, the initiative emphasizes a systemic responsibility to provide early detection tools to the public, rather than relying solely on individual patient initiative.
The Focus of Dépist&vous
Dépist&vous operates with a focus on dépistage, or health screening, which is critical for identifying diseases in their early, more treatable stages. The organization advocates for a model where these screenings are integrated and available to all demographic groups to reduce existing health disparities.
