Frank Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Hi everyone, we have just received our e106 and it tells us to take to our nearest insurance provider?? Anyone out there know where the nearest insurance provided for health is in and around the Gemozac (17) area?? i have a feeling we may need to go to Saintes, but if anyone knows, it would be helpful. Many thanks in advanceKimberleyChadeniers 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teamedup Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 I take it you are not starting a business or working.If this is the case then go to www.pagesjaunes.fr and type in CPAM and your department. And the local ones will come up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassis Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 Spot on advice above. The CPAM should be able to give you a temporary Medical Cover number on the spot and a carte vitale will come later. Remember to take your birth certificate(s), marriage certificate (if applicable) and a bill as proof of residence and your passport - all are needed in addition to the E106. You will still need a top-up assurance maladie if you want full reimbursement - the E106 does not cover the full cost of consultancy and treatment.

Frank Posted January 30, 2006 Author Share Posted January 30, 2006 Thanks for the advice, checked out and nearest is in Royan.. Any recommendations of companies for the top up asssurance would also be of a great help (cheeky I know!)!!Many thanks againKimberleychadeniers 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassis Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 A lot of the companies are regional, so can't help on that, but the lady at our CPAM gave us a list of companies and advised tor ing around and get several quotes - just as you would in the UK. Some companies are better for covering families, others for couples, then there's whether you're salaried or independent, medical history, etc .... so it's impossible to recommend just one or two companies. Just cos one person got a good quote from Company A doesn't mean the next person will get the best deal as well. Do what our CPAM lady said and get quotes from as many as you can (and if the CPAM doesn't offer you a list, ask for one - some fonctionnaires won't give any information unless you ask for it specifically!
