We will not cover any pre-existing conditions that you did not disclose in your application.

How do I access French state healthcare? 

When working or living in France, foreign nationals must register with the French social security system to access state healthcare. This involves obtaining a Carte Vitale that facilitates automatic reimbursement for treatments. More information can be found at ameli.fr.
