organisation locale dispensant des services de santé et remplissant les deux conditions suivantes : 1. Service s'adressant à des personnes qui, à cause de leurs ressources financières, psychologiques, ou de leur éloignement géographique, peuvent difficilement avoir recours aux services existant dans le système actuel. 2. Organisation qui accorde un rôle aux usagers actuels ou potentiels sous la forme d'un contrôle de l'organisation et (ou) d'une participation à la production, à la distribution des services.
