The Medal of Honour for Health and Social Affairs [médaille d’honneur de la santé et des affaires sociales] is a French civilian decoration whose regulations are determined by Decree No. 2012-169 of 2 February 2012. It continues the tradition of the Order of Public Health [Ordre de la Santé publique], established in 1938 and abolished in 1963, when the National Order of Merit swept away ministerial-rank honorary distinctions.
There were only two promotions in 2012, and the medal has not been awarded since, with no communication on the subject.
