Gustave Roussy takes care to ensure that the administrative formalities for you within the hospital are simple. The administrative formalities unit is there to answer your questions and, if necessary, to help you. This unit works closely with the Gustave Roussy social services unit.
Treatment costs are usually high. If you have French social security or if your country is signatory to a reciprocal agreement with France, these costs are wholly or partially covered.
Patients are first and foremost citizens and, as such, possess rights. These protect and ensure their autonomy and respect of their individual freedoms and dignity within the hospital. Communication with patients plays a fundamental role in their management and allows them to participate fully in decisions about their treatment.
