Sociétés coopératives hospitalières de médecins may allow non-member third parties to benefit from their services or to participate in carrying out operations within the scope of their objects. This option must be mentioned in the articles of association.
This choice of non-member third parties will be made on a complementary basis and in the economic interest of the cooperative and its members.
Transactions carried out with non-member third parties are subject to separate accounting. They may not exceed 20% of the cooperative’s total annual turnover. If the accounts show that this proportion has been exceeded, the company has one year to rectify the situation.
