As a foreigner living in Cannes, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?
We asked expats in Cannes if they have access to public healthcare in Cannes. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...
"Yes, as a foreigner living in Cannes, you will have access to public healthcare. The public healthcare system in France is known for its high quality and is considered one of the best in the world. It is funded by the government and is available to all citizens and legal residents, regardless of their income level. The system is comprehensive and covers a wide range of services, including preventive care, hospitalization, and specialist care. The cost of care is usually lower than in private healthcare, and there are also subsidies available for those who cannot afford the full cost," explained one expat living in Cannes, France.
