Briefly

French ambulance strike announced for April
""Across France, ambulance companies are operating at a loss, insolvencies are on the rise and closures are coming thick and fast.""
""In 2025, the number of business failures tripled (reaching 147) compared with the previous year.""
Private ambulance operators in France are set to strike on April 8th, with all ambulance transport unavailable from 9am to 8pm. The Chambre Nationale des Services d'Ambulances union has called for demonstrations, including rolling roadblocks. These ambulances primarily handle non-emergency patient transport. Operators are facing financial difficulties, with rising insolvencies and closures. The union states that reimbursement rates from the public health service are insufficient to cover operational costs, leading to increased business failures in recent years.
