Medical - Medical: Health Care / paper on health care reform in France | | French term or phrase: actif successoral | The subject is old people paying a part of the cost of residential care when they become dependent, the proportion depending on their assets. Don't know how to translate this - I think it means the assets they plan to leave to their kids but they mention "succession" a bit further on which I don't know how to translate either. Any ideas??
" il est envisagé d’instituer une option, au choix du bénéficiaire, entre une allocation à taux plein assortie, au-delà d’un certain seuil d’***actif successoral***, d’une récupération plafonnée sur sa succession ou une allocation à demi taux dans le cas où il préférerait préserver son patrimoine." |
