Appointments and medical procedures
The Medical Center applies the standard fees as set by the French national healthcare system. For patients with a Carte Vitale (French healthcare card) or a certificate dated no more than three months prior to their appointment stating that their insurance is up to date, no upfront payment is required (this is known as the tiers-payant system).
⚠️ Vaccinations and travel medicine are not refunded: these services are not covered by the French Health Insurance Fund (Assurance Maladie). Some additional health insurance schemes do refund some or all of the cost. Contact your additional health insurance provider to find out more. When you pay, you will be provided with an invoice which can be used as proof of payment if requesting a refund.
If no vaccines are administered, appointments are charged €15.
