The Hospital Federation of France was founded in 1924 from the merger of the five inter-regional hospital unions. It is a non-profit association established under the Association law of 1 July 1901.

The members include more than 1,000 public health establishments (hospitals) and as many medico-social structures (retirement homes and independent specialized shelters), i.e. almost all public sector health and social care institutions.

Its main aims are:

  • Promotion of the public hospital and medico-social establishments;

  • Representation of establishments.

  • the Higher Council of Hospitals,

  • the National and Regional Commissions of the Health and Social Organization,
  • the Caisse nationale de solidarité pour l'autonomie,
  • the National Advisory Council for People with Disabilities,
  • National Staff Retirement Fund, Social Work Management Committee, and
