EU Directive 2004/38/EC says that, without prejudice to national border-control rules on travel documents, Member States shall let Union citizens enter with a valid identity card or passport, and family members who are not nationals of a Member State with a valid passport.

Passport validity: Under the Schengen Borders Code, a third-country national's travel document must be valid for at least three months after the intended date of departure from the territory of the Member States and must have been issued within the previous 10 years.
Travel insurance: The Visa Code requires applicants for a uniform visa for one or two entries to prove that they hold adequate and valid travel medical insurance, valid throughout the territory of the Member States for the entire intended stay, with minimum coverage of €30,000; Estonia's Foreign Ministry asks Schengen visa applicants for travel medical insurance with coverage of at least 30,000 euros. No official source we could read states an insurance requirement for visa-exempt visitors.
