HEALTH AND SOCIAL SECURITY The Health Insurance System (“la sécurité sociale”) For European exchange students You must ask for the European health insurance card or the form E128 from your insurer prior to your departure from your home country. This card allows you to benefit from the services of the French public health care (doctor, pharmacy, hospital or clinic). If these services are not free, the charges will be refunded to you immediately or after you return in your home country. For non - European students You must affiliate with the sécurité sociale, the national health care system in France. The two main insurers are the la Mutuelle Générale (MGEL) et La Mutuelle Des Étudiants (LMDE). There is an annual fee of around 200 € to join the “student social security system” or “le régime étudiant de sécurité sociale“ (RESS). You join through either LMDE or the MGEL. You will pay per year and you must be less than 28 with proper legal status in France. Students who are older than 28 are advised to obtain private health insurance in their home country, which covers them in France, too. Those who come to France for a period shorter than 3 months cannot affiliate with the French student social security system, however many insurers have special offers for them. Since the social security doesn’t cover all of the medical expenses (it covers maximum 70% of your medical expenses), you are advised to obtain private, supplemental insurance known in French as “mutuelle” or “complémentaire”. SUPPLEMENTAL MEDICAL INSURANCE (“La Mutuelle”) Supplementary or complementary insurance will cover partially or entirely the difference between the doctor’s fee and the refund made by the national social security system. There are special offers for the students for about 22 € per year. You can effect a mutual insurance at the same company that manages your social security (primary insurance) or you can seek another provider (for example, banks often offer supplemental medical insurance). 44 \ 5.
