Public health establishments in which practitioners are authorised to carry out private practice shall draw up a charter for private practice within the hospital, including at least the clauses set out in a standard charter laid down by order of the Minister for Health. The purpose of these clauses is to ensure that patients are informed about the private nature of the activity and the fees charged in this context, their right to be treated as part of the public activity of the practitioners, and the transparency of private practice by the practitioners concerned within medical organisations. They are adapted to the nature of the activity of the public health establishment.
The charter is drawn up by the director of the health care institution on the basis of a proposal from the freelance activity commission mentioned in article L. 6154-5, after consultation with the management board and the opinion of the users’ commission, the establishment’s medical commission and the supervisory board.
