Article R4127-352 of the French Public Health Code

No midwife may be both expert midwife and treating midwife for the same patient.

In the event of a legal appraisal or in other cases, unless the parties agree, a midwife must not accept an appraisal assignment in which the interests of one of her patients, one of her friends, one of her relatives or a group which calls on her services are at stake. The same applies when his own interests are at stake.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article R4127-352

Nul ne peut être à la fois sage-femme expert et sage-femme traitante pour une même patiente.

En cas d’expertise judiciaire ou dans les autres cas, sauf accord des parties, une sage-femme ne doit pas accepter une mission d’expertise dans laquelle sont en jeu les intérêts d’une de ses patientes, d’un de ses amis, d’un de ses proches ou d’un groupement qui fait appel à ses services. Il en est de même lorsque ses propres intérêts sont en jeu.
