Take out private health insurance
Private health insurance is not mandatory but it is strongly recommended. It allows you to request reimbursements from the French health provider (Assurance Maladie), either partially or in full, depending on what cover you have chosen and the type of medical treatment. You can choose between student health insurance, your parents' health insurance or any other supplementary insurers.
If you come from a low-income household, you may, under certain conditions, qualify for the Subsidised Supplementary Health Insurance Programme (CSS). Depending on your situation, it’s either free or costs just less than €1 per day

Sécurité sociale (French health insurance)
The European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) is required in order to receive (health) insurance protection.
Provided that it is valid at least until the end of the academic year, this card allows you to receive public healthcare from a doctor, a pharmacy, a hospital or a clinic. If you have to pay for treatment, you will only have to pay part of the cost when presenting either this card or the provisional certificate confirming it’s been issued.
This card must be requested from the health insurance company in your country of origin.
