Edit: Yes, this rule applies to all non-French EU citizens.  So if any non GB nationals see this, we would of course like to hear from you too. Healthcare Issues Site    Report

But then the problem of the State prépension comes into play. This one is gonna run and run.    Report

Details as before : CPAM location (and dept no.); whether CMU subscriber/ 5 year resident / E106 holder / pre-existing medical condition etc.  No names or personal details are required.   Thanks.

I was thinking of going along to the weekly permanence in the next town to see what the chap had to say before trailing all the way into Angouleme. Until now I have been biding my time so as not to clog things up for people with more serious problems (we are CMU subscribers).   Thanks,   Graham (16)    Report

Exclusive Healthcare has a policy that gives health cover which will run until the individuals get into CMU. Then you get your money back pro-rata on the time you have needed cover. As it looks more and more likely that the March 31st deadline will arrive before CPAM gets its act together then this may be useful. Do you think that this is just a punt from exclusive to sell policies or will we need PHI if our CPAM's have not confirmed our CMU affiliation by 31st March. Does anyone have any information about the CPAM's for Angouleme, Poitiers & Limoges as these are the offices that deal with our members.    Report

20/02/2008, 13:55 Helen Joined on 23/08/2004 12 Posts 138 Re: CMU Ejections : YOUR HELP IS NEEDED received today from Rodez(12)  : ' notification d'affiliation sous critere de residence cmu de base avec cotisations' Our local office is Villefranche de Rouergue but letter from HQ, headed Assurance Maladie Aveyron NB. We have never  received a 'chucking out' letter from the CMU (one  from URSSAF when they hadn' t received documentation from CPAM and quickly rescinded as an error) Todays  letter confirms affiliation as from 2003 and details cotisations until 30/9/2008. Just a normal letter 4 months late. If we hadn't been reading the forums we would probably  have just thought that they were behind with their paperwork and that wouldn't have been unususal!!!!      Report

Although FHI would not want to be associated with any commercial organisation, Larry does have a point.  As long as this situation drags on (and although there are signs that things are getting better in some places - it is not universal by any means) then it's probably not a bad idea to invest in this type of policy.  The advantage of the Exclusive one is that it can, literally, be started and stopped on a daily basis, but there may be others.  Anybody with no cover at all would be well advised to think about something of the sort, in case the worst happens, imo. The list above contains all the CPAMs we know of, who were still not acknowledging the existance of any concessions - between 12th Feb and lunchtime today. Please keep the feedback coming.

If so that is a nonsense. Or is the list of the CPAMs who are not affilating new people coming off E 106's? Things are sorting themselves out,  Helen got her letter yesterday, I got mine in November and we are in the same department so there is no consistency in how its being done, but before FHI starts blacklisting CPAMs  it woulkd be nice to know which groups are being denied membership, how many people have been denied and more importantly what reasons are being given, people could be refused because they have not a birth certificate or utility bill. Like others I suspect, I got an E mail the other day from No 10 reponding to the petition we signed.  The response from No 10 refers to the concession for existing members but does not contain any mention of a concession for E 106 holders coming off their forms.
