Association Mieux Prescrire (AMP), the legal entity responsible for Prescrire's publications, is a non-profit organisation governed by the French law of 1901. It is a legal structure that, in France, as of 2022, enables Prescrire to preserve its independence: it means that Prescrire cannot be bought or exploited by economic agents.
Prescrire has also chosen a funding model without advertising revenue, grants or subsidies. In other words, Prescrire lives off the sales of its publications and its continuing education programmes, and depends solely on subscribers.
AMP has published a summary of its annual financial report every year since 1992 in the March issue of Prescrire (and in the June issue of Prescrire International) also making it freely available on its French and English websites www.prescrire.org and english.prescrire.org.
