| Health
and Hospital charges can be very high in France not just for non
European citizens. Yes despite having your E111 it does not guarantee
that you bill for health or hospitalization will be paid, in fact it is
normally a percentage that is paid by the National Health and the
balance is down to you. So European or Non European make sure that you
have adequate health and accident insurance cover. |

that you pre-load with an amount and
then simply use in exactly the same way you would use a credit or bank
card big advantage is that you are not giving away you bank and credit
card details. more information at
