I have already my European Health Insurance Card. How can I use it and make a visit to the doctor?

Bonjour Maggy,

If you have to visit a doctor, you can use your EHIC card, but you will probably have to pay the visit.

In order to get a refund, you need to provide to CPAM (caisse primaire d'assurance maladie) :

• a copy of your passport

• a RIB

• acquitted bills (+ prescription)

• a copy of your european health card (EHIC card)

To have further details, more information on the link below : How call French Health Insurance Advice Line ?

For your information : the international call prefix or dial out code shown as “+” has to be replaced by figures which are different from the country where you’re located.

You can find the list of these codes on the link below : https://www.indicatifs.fr/code-acces-international

You can also contact the French speaking line, dial 36 46.

Have a good day.
