title: [Medical conglomerates].
abstract: Community hospitals is undergoing rapid consolidation into network of private corporations providing health care services. So, the industrialization of health care lead to mega corporate health care. The multi-nationalization of U.S. multi-health care systems as HCA or Humana, has began at the end of the 70. The impact of this phenomena on the French health care system will be important. In order to protect technological independence and to integrate physicians into medical industrial complex, we have to create european multi-health systems.
