The starting point
Figures tell you how many and where. Never why.
Your local health needs assessment describes your population and your healthcare provision. Psycho-behavioral barriers, however, appear in no database available to a CPTS. They add to the social and environmental determinants your data already describe; they do not replace them.
We X-ray your area.You decide on the treatment.
A 6-minute self-report questionnaire, completed by your residents, online, or at the practice for people who are hard to reach online. You receive a report that shows, sector by sector:
- The dominant barriers
- The resources to build on
- The levers to activate

Four sectors: where the needs are
Sectors emerge from the data: based on the responses from the first year, municipalities are grouped into sectors of neighboring municipalities with similar needs, each with more than 100 responses. The sectors are then kept from one year to the next.
Val d'Orvelle CPTS · 30 municipalities · 29,850 residents · 498 qualified responses · 4 sectors
Same distress, opposite resources: two different actions
This is the insight that makes the measurement worthwhile. The Valley and the Plateau show almost identical distress; what sets them apart is what each population can draw on. Switch from one sector to the other.
Valley sector · 8 municipalities · 8,900 residents · n = 140

The weakest resources in the area: Resources 2 at +8, Resources 1 at +7.
The risk: informing without supporting.A population with few local intermediaries to rely on makes poor use of information, however well designed.
Where to startLocal drop-in sessions at the town hall, health mediation, small-group workshops in the municipalities.
With almost identical distress, the two sectors diverge sharply on resources. The same campaign rolled out everywhere would risk missing its target in the Valley and causing offense on the Plateau.

Prepare
Local kit: posters, counter cards, QR codes, guide for helpers. The CPTS informs its professionals.
Weeks 1 to 3
Collect
Geotargeted digital campaign run by Emycare, with a link open to the area's healthcare professionals.
Week 4
Understand
Area report, aggregated export and presentation of the results to the board, by video conference.
Example: the Val d'Orvelle data collection · fictitious data
What the CPTS receives
- The area report, sector by sector and population group by population group, with options for action and the stakeholder grid
- The aggregated export, for your own tables and your activity report
- The local kit, ready to print, and the link for your professionals
- The presentation to the board, to read the results together
What the CPTS does
Informs its professionals, distributes the kit, confirms the sectors and chooses among the options for action.
What Emycare does
The digital campaign, weekly monitoring of the collection, the analysis, the report and the presentation.
Then we measure again, with the same method: you track how things change, and you justify your budgets with facts. The funding of each CPTS mission includes a variable component tied to action and outcome indicators: now is the time to set your baseline.
No individual results
Aggregated averages only: individual results are never returned to the respondent or to the professional.
Statistical confidentiality
No value published for fewer than 10 responses.
Uncertainty shown
A gap smaller than the uncertainty is never commented on.
Consistent method
Same questionnaire, same scoring every year: year-on-year changes can be compared.
