actually I am looking at other sources.. and many say it's around 20% of your income.. and covers around 70% of the cost.. plus the employer pays for it separately too..so, if overall they say healthcare in France costs less than in the US, they make way less money than people in US..
another thing I don't get - they say their doctors make around 40K euros.. I can't imagine doctors here making this little.. something is not right.. no one will spend this many years on their education and not be able to provide reasonable income for their families..
