Lord Tebbit

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What help they give to United Kingdom nationals refused reciprocal healthcare benefits in other European Union member states. [HL2150]

Lord Hunt of Kings Heath

United Kingdom people denied benefits to which they believe they are entitled may seek advice from the relevant UK authorities. Details are given in the leafletHealth Advice for Travellers which is available from post offices and is in the Library. UK authorities will make representations to their counterparts in other member states, as necessary.
