Changes in April 2024: Vignette Verte, Parcoursup, Medical Franchises – What is changing in French?

What changes does April 1, 2024 bring?

The Vignette Verte, Parcoursup, and medical deductibles

Each new year brings its share of changes, which gradually come into force. This time, the month of April 2024 is no exception and introduces new laws and regulations that citizens must be aware of. Thus, from April 1, many of them come into force, impacting numerous sectors such as education, the environment and health. So what are these important changes, particularly concerning the green sticker, Parcoursup and the medical deductibles ?

There green sticker marks a step towards cleanliness

With the aim of promoting more environmentally friendly mobility, the government has decided to expand the use of the green sticker. This measure specifically targets the most polluting vehicles and aims to encourage drivers to adopt more environmentally friendly modes of transport. The terms of application and the sanctions in the event of non-compliance are specified from April 1, 2024.

Parcoursup : a new approach to post-baccalaureate orientation

In terms of education, it is towards Parcoursup that we must turn. The new reform offers a completely different look at post-baccalaureate guidance. Students can now benefit from greater flexibility in the choice of their training and have better visibility on access to different sectors. Their wishes will be addressed as closely as possible to their aspirations, the expected improvements which should energize our education system.

Changing the medical deductibles

Finally, the last major change concerns medical deductibles. From now on, the amount of the daily medical excess has been increased. This decision, which raises concerns, is intended to encourage patients to adopt more responsible health behaviors. It is important to emphasize that certain audiences still remain exempt from this franchise.

To conclude, the major changes concerning the green sticker, Parcoursup, and the medical deductibles which come into force on April 1, 2024, demonstrate our society's desire for constant reform. It is therefore important for all citizens to stay informed to be able to adapt as best as possible to these new provisions.
