he board of Morocco’s National Social Security Fund, meeting on September 3 under the chair of Economy and Finance Minister Nadia Fettah, approved the creation of two subsidiaries, one dedicated to digital transformation, the other to running the Fund’s polyclinics.
The general scheme is in good health: four million two hundred and forty thousand declared employees in 2025, up 4%, for a declared payroll that rose from 222.51 to 244.84 billion dirhams.
Compulsory health insurance now covers twenty-five million eighty thousand beneficiaries, for 22.65 billion dirhams in benefits, up 17%.
Yet the self-employed scheme pays out 157 dirhams in benefits for every 100 dirhams of contributions collected, a ratio that gained twenty-five points in a single year.
Spinning off the polyclinics will not settle that imbalance. The Fund says it will answer it through enrollment and collection.
