AMO Tadamon: end of RAMED and universalization
AMO Tadamon is the new compulsory health insurance scheme for people in vulnerable situations in Morocco. It progressively replaces RAMED (Medical Assistance Scheme for the Economically Deprived) created in 2012, whose limits had been identified: coverage limited to public establishments only, variable quality of care, no inclusion of private ambulatory care.
Key differences AMO Tadamon vs former RAMED
- Establishment coverage: RAMED public only → AMO Tadamon public + private contracted
- Reimbursement rate: RAMED flat-rate/random → AMO Tadamon 70-80% (identical to CNSS employees)
- Medications: RAMED restricted list → AMO Tadamon expanded list + generics 80-100% reimbursed
- Ambulatory care: RAMED not covered → AMO Tadamon covered (GP, specialists)
- ID card: RAMED paper card → AMO Tadamon digital card + mobile app
Budget and financing: 5.6 billion MAD/year
AMO Tadamon financing relies on a tripartite arrangement mobilizing State, targeted contributions, and national solidarity. The 2026 annual budget stands at 5.6 billion MAD.
2026-2030 outlook: toward universal coverage
The Moroccan government officially targets 100% population health coverage by 2030, which requires registering the 4-5 million Moroccans still without coverage. The AMO Tadamon program will absorb the bulk of these new registrations.
