by the PhD Coordinator or PhD Teaching Staff Committee (Collegio Docenti). Insurance guarantee starts
from the enrolment and expires by the end of the PhD program legal duration (the validity is extended also for
the year of prorogation).
HEALTH CARE INSURANCE
STUDENTS FROM EXTRA EUROPEAN COUNTRIES
In order to get a healthcare coverage, students from Extra European countries are advised to enrol with the
NATIONAL HEALTH SERVICE (in Italian SERVIZIO SANITARIO NAZIONALE Acronym: SSN).
The enrolment with the SSN gives you the same services as Italian citizens: you will be allocated for free a
general practitioner or family doctor (in Italian Medico di Base o Medico di Famiglia) and your costs for
medical examinations, treatments and analyses will be cheaper (no free). Hospitalization and surgery are
free.
To be entitled to SSN you have to pay an annual fee that amounts to 149,77 Euros. The payment can be
made at any Post Office through a “bollettino postale” on the C/C n. 343301 – in favour of Regione Veneto
specifying as reason of payment (or in Italian Causale di Versamento) “Iscrizione al Servizio Sanitario
Nazionale”.
After the payment you have to go to ULLS 20 Office (Via Valverde 42, Verona), with the following documents:
 identity document;
 original and copy of the receipt of payment of 149,77 Euros (please remember that the payment
provides coverage only until 31st December of the current year)

the stay permit if you have already done it;
 fiscal code;
 original of a certificate of enrolment at the University

You will have to show your payment receipt near the “pratiche amministrative” counter and fill in three
applications forms that they will give you. In one of them you have to specify which family doctor you have
decided to choose.
You are invited to choose a family doctor who speaks your language and whose office is near your
home/department. You can find the list visiting the following web site:
http://www.ulss20.verona.it/medicina-base.html
The Health Insurance Card (in Italian Tessera Sanitaria) will be issued immediately and free of charge. The
validity is annual (from January to December) and it has to be renewed.
After getting your Italian Health Insurance Card, a photocopy of it has to be e-mailed or delivered to the PhD
Office.
For the registration with the Italian Health Service you will be assisted by Dr. Andres Maldonado of
International Students Union - ISU. Please contact him before your leaving using the following e-mail
address: [email protected] and forwarding the same e-mail to [email protected]
In case of specific agreements existing between your home country and Italy please refer to the Health
Institution in your home country, asking for a specific model that permit you to obtain an extension for Italy of
your health coverage.
It is your responsibility to get al information about bilateral agreements from Italian diplomatic representations
abroad and from the competent health Institution in your Country.
At the moment agreements exist with the following Countries: Argentina, Australia, Brasil, Republic of Cape
Verde, Croatia, former Yugoslavia (Serbia, Kosovo, Vojvodina), Republic of Macedonia, Montenegro,
Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Principality of Monaco, Republic of San Marino, Tunisia, State of the
Vatican City.

order to ask for an extension to Italy of your health assistance through the release of one of the following
Forms:
- E 106* Form. It certifies entitlement to health benefits in a country other than that in which the
person concerned is normally or was previously insured.
- E 109** Form. It certifies entitlement to health benefits in a country other than that in which the
person concerned is normally or was previously insured. E 109 can be issued by your local
insurance institution only if you are dependant on your family’s financial support.
These forms give you the right to benefits of health cares at the same condition of people enrolled in
the Italian Health Service, SSN.
If you will stay in Italy for more than 90 days, you can register with the SSN by submitting your application at
the ASL, only if you have the E 106 or E 109 Forms. In order to be registered with the SSN you must be
resident in Verona . The E 106 or E 109 are considered valid health insurance if you want to take up
residence.
The following documents are needed to be entitled to public healthcare services:

underwrite a private health insurance policy (either in your country of origin or in Italy) which covers all risks

benefit from the SSN services but only that the insurance company will cover your medical fees.

 have a geographical scope including all of Italy
 guarantee the policy-holder’s return to his/her country in case of serious illness;
 provide full coverage for healthcare risks
 cover expensive in case of emergency treatment and urgent hospitalization (recovery in casualty)
 cover the entire duration of your stay in Italy
 specify what formalities the underwriter must comply with to be refunded.
 be valid in the Schengen Area
If you underwrite a private health insurance policy before leaving your country with a foreign Insurance
Company, it must be in English or translated in Italian and legalized by the Italian Embassy, Consulate.
IMPORTANT: The insurance cost will have to be covered by the student.

ACCOMMODATION
If you are a PhD student coming from abroad and you need assistance in finding an accommodation in our
city during your program, the PhD Office in collaboration with the International Students Union (ISU) will
help you to find an adequate solution.
For this purpose before you leave your country please contact Dr. Igor Fracaro of ISU, who will support you
in your research. You can contact him using the following e-mail address: [email protected],
forwarding the same e-mail to [email protected]
Please remember that rents vary depending on the location of the flat and the kind of room you choose to live
in (single room or sharing room) and private accommodation is not guaranteed: finding a private flat
depends on places available at the moment of your request. In any case International students Union will
provide every student with necessary information on private accommodation options and support in law
matters.
As a general rule, the lease must be registered by the landlord, and you will be asked to pay half of the
registration charges that amount to 2% of the total amount of the rent.
You will probably be asked to pay in advance also a two-month security deposit (in Italian “Deposito”) to
cover possible damages.
Living in Verona will cost approximately 900,00 Euro per month. With this amount you will cover all basic
living costs (accommodation, food, books, public transport).
As a general rule, the lease must be registered by the landlord, and you will be asked to pay half of the
registration charges that amount to 2% of the total amount of the rent.
You will probably be asked to pay in advance also a two-month security deposit that corresponds to 500,00
Euro (in Italian “Deposito”) to cover possible damages.
Please consider that, for the first month of your stay in Verona you will need about 1.000,00 Euro to cover
expenses related to the rent of your flat (500,00 for a two-month security deposit + monthly rate).
For that reason doctoral students have to be in possession of own financial resources in order to be
able to cover any type of expenditure connected with their stay in Verona during their PhD Program.
You can refer to the International Students Union even if you need only a temporary accommodation for first
few days after your arrival in Verona. If you wish to search for accommodation autonomously you can:
Look at rent ads that are published on local papers (i.e. for the city of Verona L’Arena (only on Wednesdays) and on
classified magazines (i.e. Corriere Casa - Verona)
- Go to a real estate agency. Please note that real estate agencies charge a fee for their service.

WHAT TO DO IN CASE OF HEALTH PROBLEMS
1) For emergencies, call the medical emergency ("Pronto Soccorso"):
Ospedale Civile Maggiore di B.go Trento
Ph. Pronto Soccorso 045 8122120
Ospedale Policlinico G.B. Rossi - B.go Roma
Ph. Pronto Soccorso 045 8124333
If you require an ambulance call 118
If you go to the casualty ward (Pronto Soccorso) you will be asked whether you are in pain and its severity:
on the basis of your answer you will be given a colour code (white, yellow, green, red, according to the
seriousness of your problem). Treatment will be according to this order, not according to the time of your
arrival. If you have a white code (no pain), you may have to wait for some hours before seeing a doctor. If
you present your Italian Health Insurance Card - Tessera Sanitaria (the receipt of payment is not enough)
all examinations and hospitalisation, if needed, will be free.
2) For emergency medical treatment in the evening, you can go to the "Guardia Medica" (emergency doctor
service) which is open every day (also on Sundays) and often throughout the night.
The telephone numbers are:
0458075627
Guardia Medica - Verona Centro
045580222
Guardia Medica - Verona Sud
0458921500
Guardia Medica - Verona Est
You are advised to call first to check that they are open.
In case of emergency, one of the emergency doctors may come to your home to treat you. Home visits are
free. Always take your stay permit with you and your Italian Health Insurance Card - Tessera Sanitaria.
3) For "normal", "general" medical treatment (for flu, a cold, etc.), go to your “MEDICO DI BASE” or
“MEDICO DI FAMIGLIA" (general practitioner or family doctor) and the visit will be free. Home visits are also
free.
4) For specialist treatment (gynaecological, dentistry, etc.) you should go to your "Medico di Base" first. He
will write a prescription. You should then call the CUP (Centro Unico Prenotazioni) in order to make an
appointment with a doctor (Phone: 848 242 200) from Monday to Friday from 8.00 a.m. to 6.00 p.m.
You will pay the ticket for the visit, corresponding to the medical tax. Always take your stay permit with you
and your Italian Health Insurance Card - Tessera Sanitaria.
PHARMACIES
Pharmacies can be recognized by a sigh with a red or green cross outside the shop. Most pharmacies keep
normal shop hours, but some are open 24 hours a day. A rotation system is used for night service and
holidays.
A closed pharmacy usually displays in its window a list of the nearest open pharmacies in the area.
8
Pharmacists usually give advice on the proper use and side effects of medications and sell both over the
counter medicines and prescription drugs. They are not allowed to dispense prescription drugs to patients
without the doctors’ authorizations
