|process_remarks=The European Insurance Card does not replace travel insurance. It does not cover private healthcare, nor costs such as a ticket for the return flight to the country of origin or loss/theft of property. In addition, it does not cover the costs if the insured person travels specifically to receive medical treatment. Finally, it does not guarantee that services are provided free of charge, as each country’s healthcare system is different; services that are provided free of charge in the country of origin may not be free of charge in another country.
|process_description=The procedure concerns the issue of a European Health Insurance Card (ESMA), a free card, which is provided to those who have active insurance capacity in e-ECA in order to have access to medically necessary, state care during their temporary stay in one of the 27 EU countries, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland, at the same conditions and costs (in some countries free of charge) as the insured in that country.
+
N.B.: if normal residence is transferred to another country, registration is required using the S1 form instead of using the European Health Insurance Card, in order for the insured person to receive medical treatment in that country.

|process_remarks=The European Insurance Card does not replace travel insurance. It does not cover private health care, nor does it cover costs such as the air return ticket in the country of origin or the loss/living of assets. It also does not cover the costs, if the insured person travels specifically to receive medical care. It does not guarantee the free provision of services, since the health care systems of each country differ, services provided free of charge in the country of origin may not be provided in another country. Warning: In the case of transfer of normal residence to another country, registration is required there through the S1 form instead of the use of the European Health Insurance Card in order that the insured person receives medical care in that country.

Description

The procedure concerns the issuing of a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC), a free card, which is provided to those who are actively insured by e-EFKA, in order to have access to medically necessary state care during their temporary stay in one of the 27 EU countries, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland, with the same conditions and at the same cost (in some countries, free of charge) as insured persons in that country.

Validity duration

1 year

Notes

The European Insurance Card does not replace travel insurance. It does not cover private healthcare, nor costs such as a ticket for the return flight to the country of origin or loss/theft of property. In addition, it does not cover the costs if the insured person travels specifically to receive medical treatment. Finally, it does not guarantee that services are provided free of charge, as each country’s healthcare system is different; services that are provided free of charge in the country of origin may not be free of charge in another country. N.B.: if normal residence is transferred to another country, registration is required using the S1 form instead of using the European Health Insurance Card, in order for the insured person to receive medical treatment in that country.
