The Military Health Service honour medal (French: "Médaille d'honneur du service de santé des armées") is a French decoration created 30 August 1962.
No person may be proposed for the grant of a medal if he is already the holder of that of the lower level.
However, members of the Order of the Legion of Honor may be directly awarded the silver or vermeil grades.
The recipient receives a certificate noting that it has been awarded for services rendered or the dedication he has shown.
The Médaille d'honneur du service de santé des armées is awarded, except in exceptional cases, twice a year, on 1 January and 14 July.
