None will be spared : for the first time since 2012, the four branches of social Security will be in deficit in 2020, sealed by the coronavirus, the containment and the recession that follows, with a “sharp decline in revenue” (dues, taxes) estimated at € 42.8 billion.
The health insurance branch, will undergo “the degradation of the more “spectacular”, with a deficit estimated at 31.1 billion compared to 1,46 billion a year earlier, caught between falling revenues and a strong increase of the charges “. The cost of the exceptional measures decided during the crisis (purchase of masks and materials, premiums and overtime hours, work stoppages, screening tests, etc.) is estimated at 12 billion euros, in part offset by a decline of $ 4 billion of expenditure in care of city (liberal doctors, physios, dentists, nurses…).
The branch pension will record a loss of 14.9 billion, mainly due to the fall in revenue. His accounts had already swung into the red last year, despite the near-freezing of pensions.
The branch family, in the green for the past two years, will also (- $3.1 billion). Even the small branch ” accidents “, which was in surplus for the past seven years, there will not escape (- 0.7 billion) despite a decrease in claims during the period of containment “. Finally, the old age solidarity fund (FSV), chronically in deficit, will show a negative balance of $ 2.1 billion, in particular due to the revaluation of the minimum old-age pension.
