He then went on to set up and run a healthcare consulting firm (1986-19997), before returning to academia as a Professor and Chair of Economics and Management of Health Services at the National Conservatory of Arts and Crafts - CNAM (1997-2016). There, he created and directed the Pasteur/CNAM School of Public Health (2006-2013). Since autumn 2019, he has been writing a column for Le Point.fr.
