Here&#8217;s a look at this innovative initiative.<\/p>\n<h2><em>Allianz France<\/em>&#8216;s approach to DYS disorders<\/h2>\n<p>Affecting nearly <strong>7 million people in France<\/strong>, learning disorders do not benefit from optimal medical follow-up&#8212;<strong>access to care<\/strong> remaining as <strong>limited<\/strong> as it is a source of deep <strong>social inequality<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, <strong>coverage<\/strong> for certain professionals, despite being qualified to help children with DYS disorders (<a href=\"https:\/\/ora-visio.com\/en\/occupational-therapy-online\/\">occupational therapist<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/ora-visio.com\/en\/handwriting-therapy-remote\/\">graphotherapist<\/a>&#8230;), <strong>remains too limited<\/strong> by health insurers and other insurance providers to ensure long-term remediation follow-up.<\/p>\n<p>In September 2022, <em>Allianz France<\/em> decided to launch an innovative initiative with the start-up Mila: for a <strong>period of 7 months<\/strong>, the insurer&#8217;s 8,500 employees will be able to <strong>access the <\/strong><em>Mila-Learn<\/em><strong> app for free<\/strong> for 3 months.<\/p>\n<h2>The playful, medically-grounded <em>Mila-Learn<\/em> device<\/h2>\n<p>Published by the company <em>Bmotion technologies<\/em>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mila-learn.com\/\"><em>Mila-Learn<\/em><\/a> is an app dedicated to children with DYS disorders. In a <strong>playful environment<\/strong>, with music and video-game touches, it rolls out exercise sessions designed to <strong>stimulate the child&#8217;s abilities<\/strong>&#8212;whether reading, attention, working memory, visuo-spatial analysis, flexibility, or inhibition.<\/p>\n<p>Used at home alongside more traditional remediation sessions (with a <a href=\"https:\/\/ora-visio.com\/en\/online-speech-therapy\/\">speech therapist<\/a>, for example), the app has already <strong>reached 6,000 children aged 7 to 14<\/strong>&#8230; It is currently the subject of a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dys-positif.fr\/mila-le-jeu-musical-anti-dyslexie-bientot-considere-comme-un-dispositif-medical\/\">national clinical study<\/a>, with the Pitie-Salpetriere hospital in Paris. In phase 3, it is being evaluated in the same way as a medicine&#8212;the goal being to turn it into <strong>a medical device covered by France&#8217;s national health insurance<\/strong>&#8230;<\/p>\n<h2>The Allianz\/Mila partnership<\/h2>\n<p>At the end of the Mila-Learn medical device&#8217;s trial period at Allianz France, at the end of March, its use and how families perceive it will be assessed.
