Cost of my hospital stay

  If you have social security

If you have social security but you do not have a "mutuelle" or other complementary insurance for your hospital fees, you need to pay your bill before your discharge: 

  • The user fee or flat fee ("ticket modérateur" or "participation forfaitaire"):
    • The user fee amounts to 20% of the daily fee for hospital care.
    • The flat fee replaces the user fee in case of a medical act equal or superior to 120€, or with a ratio superior or equal to 60, during your hospitalisation.
  • The user fee and flat fee can be exonarated from your stay in certain cases permitted by law. The hospital fees will be covered 100% by the social security starting from the 31st day of hospitalisation.
  • The daily hospital fee: it is payable for a stay with at least one night in. It can be covered by your insurance or "mutuelle" in certain cases permitted by law.

  • Other services such as private room, television, phone, accompanying meals or beds...

If you have a complementary insurance or "mutuelle", please contact them to know the extent of the coverage of those fees.

  If you have
private insurance

Contact your insurance to know the extent of the coverage of your hospital fees.

Feel free to contact the hopsitalisation desk to etablish an invoice to send to your insurance:

  Call: +33 479 417 979
  Email: bde@ch-bsm.fr
  If you do not have
any insurance

You need to pay the entirety of your hospital bill and other services, before you are discharged from the hospital.

In case of any issue with this matter and if you are a residing in France with a social security number, you can contact the social workers of the hospital:

Liberal activity of practitioners

Some hospital practitioners dedicate a part of their activity to the liberal sector.

For a consultation in liberal activity, the entirety of the fees will be at your charge and a form will be given to you to get your reimbursement.

A consultation in the liberal sector does not mean that, in need of further care, you should be hospitalised strictly in the private sector.

For an hospitalisation in the private sector, the doctor will give you an authorisation form to sign if you agree to. If you wish to be hospitalised in the private sector, you need to express it directly.

We remind you that you will have to pay the user fee (or flat fee) that will not be covered by your "mutuelle" or complementary insurance.
