Being a non EU/EEA citizen, in order to apply for the [[Permit of stay]] for the first time and to obtain a basic health assistance, you have to underwrite a private health insurance policy (e.g. INA-Assitalia). The price is 49.00 euro for up to 6 months and 98.00 euro for 1 year. This insurance only covers urgent medical assistance (surgery and accidents) in the Emergency Room (''Pronto Soccorso''). It can be paid at any Post Office in Italy.  
When you will apply for a [[Student Visa]], Italian Embassies and Consulates accept SISSA letter stating that you will underwrite a health insurance upon your arrival in Italy.


For the payment you should fill out the receipt called '''Conto Corrente Postale'''  as follows:
