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a 'chucking out' letter from the CMU (one  from URSSAF when they hadn' t received documentation from CPAM and quickly rescinded as an error) Todays  letter confirms affiliation as from 2003 and details cotisations until 30/9/2008.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. Why not post a sensible answer, people will appreciate it more    Report

It's split about 50/50 between existing CMU ers and E106 expirees.  Obviously, it depends on who has bothered to tell us - so it's just a brief overview.  All cases we reported were legitimate and in total compliance with the regs - including full tax returns etc.  I have to say, we have not reported cases where the applicant was at fault - I don't feel it's our business to feed back those cases to the Embassy! Yes, the petition response was woefully out of date (it no doubt had to be approved by lots of people before it was posted) and gave a few people a bit of a start, no doubt.

But of course any new cases you learn of would be equally useful to know next week,"   So please keep them coming so I can report back on a weekly basis.  Thanks. Healthcare Issues Site    Report

We waited to see an adviser who, from previous experience, seems to be more senior and up-to-date with regulations.  She said that they had only just received the new ruling for E106ers and appeared to accept it, she informed us that our dossier was already complete other than needing yet another copy of the tax reference for 2006 (this had already been sent off twice with both applications).  It appeared to be quite straighforward, she inputted something into her computer, printed a form off and stapled the tax reference sheet to the form.  "That's it" she said.  However, when I asked re: contributions she said that we will receive something in the post within the next two weeks informing us how much we have to pay.  Having read what has happened to Ninthace and the fact that Gueret is on the list of CPAMs not complying I'm not sure whether it's gone quite as well as I thought. It looks as though we should have received an attestation, in fact we didn't come away with anything to confirm that we are now affilicated to CMUb.     Report
