Hello Christian,
It will all depend on your personal situation (are you working? Are you retired?).
The best course of action for you would be to read the French Health Insurance English pages which contain different procedures to follow depending upon your situation. You can also call the French Health Insurance English-speaking advice line on (+33) 9 74 75 36 46.

Thanks. Unfortunately, the person there didn’t know and said they are not involved in that. They referred me to URSSAF. They couldn’t figure it out and referred me back to CPAM. Can you tell me any source online on how the cotistation is determined for retired expats from the US. What are the factors? What is the formula. I have never worked in France.

Thanks

Hello,

If you are the holder of a Carte Vitale, the best place to get the information you need will be your local CPAM (Caisse primaire d’assurance maladie).

Kind regards
