Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.
Djibouti adopts and supports the principle of solidarity and the equality of all in the face of public health costs: everyone must contribute, to the extent of their resources, to the financing of these costs. To this end, the State is gradually introducing a system of participation extended to all beneficiaries, to enable partial recovery of healthcare costs. Legislative and regulatory texts determine the measures required to implement these provisions.
