About access to healthcare, which statement is correct?
In the exam (French)
Concernant l'accès aux soins, quelle proposition est correcte ?
- aOnly people of French nationality who work in France are entitled to Health InsuranceSeules les personnes de nationalité française qui travaillent en France ont droit à l'Assurance maladie
- bAnyone who works or lives in France on a stable and legal basis is entitled to Health InsuranceToute personne qui travaille ou réside en France de façon stable et régulière a droit à l'Assurance maladieCorrect answer
- cYou must have top-up health insurance to be treated in a public hospitalIl faut obligatoirement avoir une mutuelle complémentaire pour être soigné dans un hôpital public
- dA doctor can refuse to treat a patient because of their origin or nationalityUn médecin peut refuser de soigner un patient à cause de son origine ou de sa nationalité
Why?
Thanks to universal health protection (protection universelle maladie, PUMa), anyone who works or lives in France on a stable and legal basis has the right to have their health costs reimbursed, whatever their nationality. Top-up health insurance (mutuelle) is useful, but it is not compulsory in order to be treated. A doctor cannot refuse a patient for a discriminatory reason, such as their origin.
