title: [The orthopedic program to support patients returning home from the hospital].
abstract: The French state health insurance scheme, in line with its risk management policy, has offered, since 2010, a programme to support insured patients returning home from hospital (PRADO). Thanks to this programme, run in association with the general practitioner or the specialist, patients can choose to receive support from midwives, nurses, masseurs and physiotherapists. The orthopaedic PRADO programme, for example, supports patients returning home after an operation.
