⚠️ IMPORTANT: Complementary Health Care Insurance does not replace Health Mobility Insurance. Complementary Health Care Insurance complements the French Social Security system (Assurance Maladie) by reimbursing all or part of the medical expenses that remain at your expense. To benefit from it, you must be affiliated with the French Assurance Maladie system and have a French Social Security number. If you are not yet covered by the French Social Security system or if you are going to study abroad, our Health Mobility Insurance is the solution adapted to your situation.
France has one of the world’s best healthcare systems. If you are studying in France for several months, you may be eligible to register for the French public health insurance system (Assurance Maladie). While this public coverage reimburses part of your medical expenses, it rarely covers the full cost of healthcare. The remaining amount, known as the patient contribution, is your responsibility unless you have supplementary health insurance (complémentaire santé or mutuelle).
Choosing complementary health insurance as a student is not just about meeting requirements or comparing different plans. It’s about making sure you’re well protected while keeping your healthcare costs under control. Whether you need to replace your glasses, visit a doctor unexpectedly, receive dental treatment, or consult a specialist, medical expenses can arise when you least expect them.
With STUDCORP Supplementary Health Insurance, enjoy flexible, customizable coverage that helps reduce your out-of-pocket healthcare costs by covering expenses not reimbursed by the French public healthcare system.
Whether you’re looking for an affordable student health plan or the right balance between coverage and price, STUDCORP supports you throughout your studies in France, so you can focus on your success with complete peace of mind.
Once you are affiliated to Social Security, your medical expenses are covered at rates ranging from 15% to 80%. This coverage does not reimburse all your medical expenses. Supplementary health supplements the Social Security reimbursement. It covers the complementary portion, also known as the “ticket modérateur”, which the insured person must pay after the compulsory portion has been reimbursed.

Over 50 schools and universities already trust us to protect their students. Why not you?
Since the abolition of the student social security system in 2019, students in France are no longer required to enroll in a specific mandatory supplemental health insurance plan when they enroll in higher education. They remain covered under the mandatory health insurance plan they were already enrolled in, most often their parents’ plan (the general health insurance plan, the Agricultural Social Mutual Insurance, etc.). However, this mandatory plan reimburses ONLY a portion of healthcare expenses. That is why it is advisable to purchase supplemental health insurance, which supplements the reimbursements provided by the national health insurance system. In practical terms, supplemental health insurance helps reduce out-of-pocket costs for doctor’s visits, medications, dental or vision care, and sometimes even hospitalization. It is particularly useful for students, whose resources are often limited, to prevent unexpected healthcare costs from placing too heavy a burden on their budget.
This student health insurance is designed for students who want to supplement the reimbursements provided by the French public healthcare system. Whether you’re a French student, an international student in France, an Erasmus+ or exchange student, an apprentice, or a scholarship holder, this student health insurance plan offers flexible coverage to suit your budget and healthcare needs. It is ideal for students enrolled in French universities who want affordable health insurance or enhanced reimbursement for medical consultations, hospitalization, dental care, optical care, and prescription costs. With customizable plans, you can choose the level of protection that best matches your situation while reducing your out-of-pocket healthcare expenses.
REMINDER: Complementary Health Insurance DOES NOT REPLACE Health Mobility Insurance. It is available only if you are affiliated with the French Social Security system and have a French Social Security number. If this is not your case or if you are studying abroad, Health Mobility Insurance is the right solution.
You must be under 30 years old, have a French social security number, and be studying in France.
There is a one-year commitment period, except in exceptional cases.
