How do I get healthcare/insurance in France if I'm unemployed?

1 Answer

Answer :

Health coverage doesn’t stop just because you’re unemployed. If you’re receiving any “revenue de remplacement” (unemployment payments), then you’re covered just as any other salaried worker would be. Once unemployment benefits expire, you continue to be covered for an unlimited time as long as you can prove that you’re looking for work. Here’s an explanation.
