Hi George, We've had this conversation before about Catch 22. I'm told by Newcastle that EHIC now lasts for 6 months, which is fine, but according to the information at the top of this thread, you're supposed to apply for residency if ... Read More

Just returned to Gozo. Are we right in thinking that the Reciprocal Health Agreement for UK citizens is an either/or deal? That is, if you sign up for the RHA you relinquish your rights to NHS treatment in UK? We initially thought it was in ... Read More
