The second and truly focusing cause

Is the constant stirred up conviction that the European Medical care Card (EHIC) gives ‘free medical care’. About 20% of all age groups believe that to be the case.

Truly, beside a couple non-EU European countries with affiliations, the EHIC covers no country past the EU.

Without a doubt, even in an EU country, the EHIC simply deals with the costs of treatment that would moreover be free to local occupants in the real country. Along these lines, it won’t cover things like clinical bringing back, additional hotel and flight costs for care providers, etc.
