France: Ambulances blockade Champs-Elysees over transport reforms
6
17.11.2018
Dozens of ambulances blocked the Champs-Elysees in Paris on Friday, protesting against controversial reforms to the financing of medical transportation.
The blockade led to significant traffic jams in and surrounding one of the most iconic avenues in the French capital.
The new regulation, which went into effect on October 1, means that hospitals and clinics, rather than individual patients, will choose which ambulance service to use.
Ambulance workers say the reform will undermine their autonomy and worsen their working conditions, as they will no longer be able to compete.
