Health insurance in France
Why take out international health insurance when traveling or living in France? Quite simply because healthcare costs can quickly reach very high levels abroad. Health insurance is compulsory in France when applying for a Schengen Visa. Repatriation cover is also an essential criterion. In the event of a serious accident, medical repatriation to the nearest medical center or to the country of residence may be necessary. Depending on where you are at the time of the accident, and the medical prognosis, it may be necessary to charter a helicopter or medical aircraft.
