Hospitals charge according to the treatment received.
If you are unsure then you should go to the local office of the CPAM, this is the body for the French Health service, they will give you the information that you need. I hope that you find this helpful.

Where would you claim this back from Amelia? If you are a French resident you won't be able to claim anything from the UK as you are no longer a UK resident and have given up your right to normal NHS treatment in the UK. Of course if you are just on holiday then thats a different thing as you are covered under your temp card
