TRIPS TO MAINLAND SPAIN, THE CANARY ISLANDS (Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura, Lanzarote, La Palma, Gomera and El Hierro) AND THE BALEARIC ISLANDS (Cabrera, Formentera, Ibiza, Majorca/Mallorca, Menorca) – 24 HOUR EMERGENCY SERVICE
When away from Home, it is most important that You have immediate access to professional medical attention in the event of an emergency. With this in mind, We have put in place, for Your benefit, a network of medical professionals throughout mainland Spain, the Canary Islands and the Balearic Islands, at Your service 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This is supported by a 24 hour medical emergency service, which can direct You to these professionals, and which will also follow Your case through from the moment You enter hospital until You are released and, in more serious cases, until You are safely repatriated
(accompanied, if deemed medically necessary, by one of Our medical team).
In addition, no Policy Excess will apply when You receive inpatient treatment (where medically necessary) at:
- one of Our network hospitals, or
- a state hospital when You have used the EHIC to effectively reduce the cost of Your medical treatment or medicines.
