At the request of the High Committee for Public Health (HCSP), an evaluation of the reception of its report, "Health in France" was carried out by the National Federation of Regional Health Observatories. Forty semi-directive interviews among actors of the health system from various geographic and professional backgrounds were carried out. It appears that the HCSP is an authority that is not well-known, for the most part. The report itself was mainly distributed by administrative networks; in the majority of cases, only the first part is well-known and was the particular focus of the interviewees. Overall, this document is a work instrument, a global tool, and a reference document. Several improvements are proposed concerning its form, the list of subjects covered, as well as the means of distribution.
