Free vaccines: will national insurance get more people vaccinated?
NCT ID NCT07243236
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study in France tests whether having the national health insurance pay for vaccines during outpatient visits increases how many people get vaccinated. Researchers will compare vaccination rates for pneumococcal infections and whooping cough (pertussis) before and after the funding change. About 2,920 patients and healthcare providers will answer questionnaires to track the impact.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that covering vaccine costs through national insurance increases vaccination rates, helping public health officials design better funding programs.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It measures current practices, so it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may not apply outside France or to other vaccines.
