Health insurance. Assitenarzt

#1

Hello, I'm an assitent Doctor from France coming soon.

I heard that we have 3 months to choose between the Swiss or French insurance.

I actually gonna be living in Switzerland and close my Taxes in France.

How does it work? Can I keep my french 'mutuelle'? Is it better to take full Swiss insurance? I'm a bit overwhelmed.

Thanks


Marie
