Abstract: For 25 years work has been underway in France for the implementation of ă an alternative to public financing of health care. In the absence of ă progress, some regional health agencies are engaged in work related to ă the reallocation of public finances between psychiatric institutions. We ă propose a reflection with suggestion on the method proposed by the ă Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur Regional Health Agency. Without questioning ă the need for a reallocation of resources between psychiatric ă institutions, the method proposed here needs to evolve further to be ă applied in a legitimate and appropriate manner. There is a kind of ă urgency for a reallocation of resources between psychiatric institutions ă in France, but it implies a collective thinking and especially the ă definition of evaluation procedures for the selected models. These ă conditions are necessary to guarantee the quality of French psychiatry ă and equity in access to psychiatric care. (C) 2016 L'Encephale, Paris.
