As a foreigner living in Grenoble, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?
We asked expats in Grenoble if they have access to public healthcare in Grenoble. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...
"Yes, as a foreigner living in Grenoble, you will have access to public healthcare. The public healthcare system in France is known for its high quality and is available to all residents, regardless of nationality. It is funded by taxes and social security contributions, and is free at the point of use. The healthcare system is divided into two parts: the public system, which is run by the government, and the private system, which is run by private companies. The public system is generally considered to be of higher quality than the private system, and is the preferred choice for most people," remarked another expat who made the move to Grenoble, France.
