EDIT: not sure if the post was edited or I misread you… I was reading US -> EU

For a move from US to EU without employment insurance (which may grant you coverage for existing issues), you will need to go through your state marketplace which is more expensive but should have plans that covers it (by law).

Original text:

I just did such a move from the USA to France. After seeing a specialist in the country, I got access to something called “ALD” (“affectation de longue durée” aka long term chronic issue). This grants me 100% coverage for anything related to my crohn’s, including surgeries and the drugs mentioned in this thread. Note that the drug itself is also capped at $500 per box of 2 pens due to French regulation on drug prices, vs $5000 without insurance in the U.S.).
