How MGEN compares
MGEN is NOT a joint-stock insurer like AXA, and it is NOT the public Assurance Maladie; it is a complementary health mutuelle under the Code de la mutualité. MGEN is part of the VYV group, alongside Harmonie Mutuelle. MGEN is also distinct from La Mutuelle Générale, a separate mutuelle with a similar name.
