CANADA: Prices, refunds
Hereinafter, you will find the examination costs, which depend on the patient’s age.

| Cash | Check | Credit Card | |||
| Dr Aubert examination at his office | Aged 15 and older | 250 € | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |

The total cost, including all examinations, is therefore a function of age:

| from 11 to 14 | 190+50 = 240 € (medical examination + Xray) |
| 15 or older | 250+44+50 = 344 € (medical examination + urine test + blood test + Xray) |
Is it reimbursed?
- The immigration medical examination (IME) for Canada (Dr. AUBERT’s examination, basic biological check-up and chest x-ray) is not considered by the French social security as a reimbursable procedure. You will thus not be reimbursed by your health insurance or your mutual insurance company. However, in Canada, basic regulation often allows for a future employee to negotiate reimbursement with their (future) employer. As such, keep the fee notes you will receive from Dr. Aubert, the laboratory and the radiologist!
- If you have a chronic pathology, Canadian administration may ask for some additional examinations: these exams will be covered by the French social security, as they are performed in the interest of your health.
