Summary
Public systems often need the residence card; private insurance covers gaps.
Short answer: after the residence card, register for public healthcare/GP under local rules. Use compliant private insurance during waiting periods. Emergency and routine outpatient rules differ.
FAQ

Most public systems need lawful residence status.
Family together?
Each person’s status documents.
Insurance instead of registration?
