Warning
MTP has been replaced, since 1er March 2013, by the Third Party Complementary Benefit (TPRB).
You're in business
The third-party mark-up allows the beneficiary to receive a invalidity pension higher.
The increase is paid, subject to conditions, to cover the costs of an aid in daily life (e.g. dressing, getting up, sitting down, etc.).
Its amount is revalued annually.
You can benefit from the third-party supplement (TPM), if you hold a 3rd category disability pension, which means that you meet the following 2 conditions:
- You're unable to work
- Your disability requires you to seek the assistance of a third party to carry out the ordinary acts of everyday life
You can also take advantage of this surcharge if you need someone's help to carry out everyday life activities at the latest, before age 67 (if you were born in 1955 or later).
It is the medical officer of the social security organization you depend on (CPAM or MSA) who determines, based on a grid of 10 ordinary acts of everyday life, whether you need the assistance of a third person.
This grid allows the user to evaluate whether or not you can perform the following actions alone :
- Get up and go to bed
- Rise from a seat and sit there
- Moving around in your accommodation, including wheelchairs
- Settle in and out of your wheelchair
- Get up if you fall
- Leave your home in case of danger
- Dress and strip completely
- Eating and drinking
- Go urinating and bowel movements without help
- Put on your orthopedic device (if necessary)
The medical officer determines the number of procedures for which you need assistance.

If you are covered by the general scheme (whether you are employed or self-employed), you must apply for the third-party premium from the primary health insurance fund (CPAM).

You must apply for the MTP from the Mutualité sociale agricole (MSA) fund, which pays you your disability pension.
The third-party surcharge is €1,266.60 per month.
It is not taxable and its amount is revalued every year (in April).
The third-party surcharge shall be paid every month.
