The S1 system in France allows individuals receiving state pensions from EU member states, EEA countries, and Switzerland to have their healthcare costs covered. It isn't limited to retirees; posted workers and students may also be eligible. Brexit has complicated access for UK citizens. Those living in France prior to December 31, 2020, retain their rights under the Withdrawal Agreement, while future retirees moving to France still have conditions for S1 eligibility based on their pension status with the UK.
S1 is a healthcare cost coverage scheme that primarily aids individuals receiving state pensions from EU member states and specific expatriate groups.
Eligibility for S1 extends beyond retirees, including posted workers, students, and those possessing UK state pensions even post-Brexit—a pivotal point.
UK citizens residing in France before December 31, 2020, keep their S1 entitlements under the Withdrawal Agreement, which protects their healthcare access rights.
Brexit complicates S1 access for future UK retirees, but those already in France before 2020 maintain their healthcare coverage agreements.
