Income tax, however, doesn't cover social security. That's covered by the taxes an employer pays, and those are larger than 23% (but also contain other taxes).

- maelito 10y agoIt's covered by some of the taxes you and your employer pay (though it's transparent for you) that are roughly proportional to your salary. For most people : Health cotisation : ~14% CSG (on all types of revenue, not only salaries) : ~8% Some other taxes go to fund the medical system (e.g. Forfait social, Taxe sur les salaires, TVA on drugs), but as far as I know those two are the main ones.
