In 2023, Health Insurance detected and stopped fraud amounting to €466 million, an increase of almost 50% compared to 2022. Among the cases of fraud involving work stoppages, the submission of false work stoppages accounted for more than 7,9 million euro of financial damage detected in 2023.

In order to combat these practices effectively, the Health Insurance provides a new Cerfa form of notice of work stoppage that is difficult to falsify and more secure. This includes the following:

• a special paper;
• a holographic label;
• magnetic ink;
• Prescriber identification marks, etc.

This paper form, whose use is encouraged by the Health Insurance, is available to order on amelipro.

Its use will be mandatory as of june 2025 for any sending of a paper work stoppage notice. As a result, Cerfa work stoppage forms that can be filled out and then printed from prescription software will be rejected by health insurers as of this date.
