 Possibility of carrying out a free health check. The visit is carried out by a nurse to: assess your state of health, take stock of your vaccination status, provide screening if necessary. 

You can benefit from simple and free healthcare cover, registration on the etudiant-etranger.ameli.fr site.

In France, all insured persons must declare who their own personal doctor is. This step makes it easier for you to be reimbursed. A doctor from the Health Centre can become your own personal doctor.

The social security system does not cover the full cost of healthcare. We strongly advise you to take out additional optional insurance (mutual insurance) to cover the rest of any medical expenses.

You must have your “carte vitale” (or social security certificate) and your complementary mutual insurance certificate to avoid having to pay the costs upfront + health or vaccination book + student card
