La Rosiere does not have a hospital - if you required hospital treatment that would be down in the valley in Bourg St Maurice. I'm pleased to say that we have not had to sample the medical facilities there so can't comment on clinics/GPs.
Plenty of threads on ski insurance - use the search facility - at the top of the page "Forum Search".
We stayed at les Cimes Blanches which is at the les Eucherts end of the village and is ski in ski out. Very nice apartments.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

If you break big, you'll be shipped further down the valley to Albertville.....but don't panic, contrary to rumours, French hospitals have running water and basic hygiene standards these days. Some even have electricity and doctors.

carla, there is a doctor in the village, his offices are in the Cabinet Medical, just opposite the Maison de Ski - lift pass offices. He speaks good english, the nearest hospital is Bourg St Maurice 23 kms away, with the major facility in Chambery. We use ski-insurance.co.uk don't know what they're like, we've never had to claim but we always recommend buying the Carte Neige with your lift pass, for about €3 per day you're covered for evacuation off the slopes and delivery to the hospital. Just make sure you have your E111 card if you need hospital treatment, the regime in France is pay first and then claim back from either the state or private insurer, usually a combination of both. I'd be very disappointed if medical facilities in the village weren't better than Bansko but I've never had to try them so I've no way of knowing.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Had to take youngest to the docs in La Ros with a suspected broken wrist, thankfully only badly sprained. Doc x-rayed it there and then, and sent him to the pharmacy for a suitable support bandage. All done in half an hour and didn't even cost us as much as the insurance excess.
