All European Erasmus students should travel to Italy with their European Health Insurance Card.
The European Health Insurance Card, replacing paper forms such as the E111, gives access to immediate necessary care and doctors under the same conditions as nationals of that country.
Students will be provided a list of doctors they can refer to in case of need. The Health Service free of charge.

Students coming from non-EU countries are strongly recommended to get hold of an insurance policy certified, translated by the Italian Diplomatic Representative abroad: in order to get the Residence Permit they are in fact required to have an Health Insurance for the entire duration of their stay in Italy.
Alternatively, once in Pavia, non-EU students who do not have such a private insurance policy, can enrol with the National Health Service (SSN) by paying a yearly fee (please note that it is valid until December 31st of the year in which it is subscribed) of around € 150.
This has to be payed at the Post Office, by a paying- in slip (bollettino postale) on the account c/c n° 379222.
Afterwards, you need to go to the Health Local Unit (ASL, Via Indipendenza, 3 Pavia) with the payment receipt. There you will choose a Practitioner.
