Health and security
EU citizens can benefit from the famous French social security system. However medical care has a cost and it can vary a lot. A long administrative procedure is necessary to be refunded and for foreign tourists it is well worth subscribing to a personal medical insurance and asking advice to health authorities. In case of medical emergency, call toll free numbers 15 (Medical Emergency) or 18 (Fire brigade).
