Idea [I] "French Health Issues" Website Launch
Reply Quote

We have today launched a website dealing in all things related to the new health and residency legislation in France.

 

http://www.frenchhealthissues.eu/

 

On it, we offer as much difinitive information as we have been able to find, on the new legislation, how it might affect you, and what you can do to lobby against it.

 

We hope to expand the website over the coming weeks, to encompass all the aspects of the legislation and its effects, plus what we can do to contest it.  For this we need your help, feedback and input.

 

Please take the time to have a good look around the site, and contact us with your suggestions as to what we can do to make it better.  Also, please feel free to contact us if we can help you in any way with your own lobbying efforts.

Just had a good look round the website, and it appears very well put together and certainly fit for purpose.  I tried all the main links and most of the sub-links, and all worked correctly.  Highlights for me were the FAQs, particularly "common misconceptions", the comprehensive links and the site layout, clear and concise.

I could find only one item that didn't sound right:-

Q.  Will I need top-up insurance in addition to comprehensive insurance?
 

A.  No.  Comprehensive insurance policies are independent of top-up insurance.

 
Might it not be better to explain you would only need top-up if you are affiliated to the CPAM, and Comprehensive insurance if you are not?  Or am I overcomplicating it for the majority of people?

Keep up the good work, we are all on this forum right behind you.

I think the answer is correct - you have either a) CMU plus top up or b) Comprehensive private insurance, so you do not need both. The key is in the phrase 'in addition' IMHO.

Well done Coops excellent, clear, informative site......

Excellent website.  I have sent the link to friends who are soon to find themselves in the medical care "no-man's land" and also to those friends who are planning to move here in the future.

Thank you to all of those responsible for putting the site together at such short notice and we look forward to updates and news.
