🇬🇧 English

This order expands the wording of a reimbursable medical device listing so that protective helmets cover both disabled children and disabled adults, instead of children only. The practical effect is narrow but important for patients, caregivers, prescribers, and suppliers: adults with disabilities may now fall within the listed reimbursement category for these protective helmets. The change takes effect on the 13th day after publication in the French Official Journal.
