• The European Health Insurance Card covers us if we fall ill or suffer an injury while travelling in the EU, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway or Switzerland.

• The EHIC entitles us to the same public sector healthcare as the citizens of the country we are visiting.

• The EHIC does not cover planned treatment, unless previous authorisation is obtained.

• The EHIC is free of charge.

• In Malta application forms may be collected from the Entitlement Unit within the Ministry of Health, the Elderly and Community Care or from any local council.

• The EHIC complements a travel insurance policy. It does not substitute it.
