Germany Insurance
The German health service is excellent. There is a reciprocal health agreement with the UK and most EU countries, whose citizens are entitled to free medical and dental treatment on presentation of a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC).
EU citizens are entitled to free or subsidised primary care in the event of sudden illness or an accident in Germany. In many European countries the European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) has replaced the E111 form. Presentation of the European Card guarantees that the holder will not have to pay for, or will be reimbursed for, the costs of their medical treatment.
Citizens of other states are advised to take out travel insurance.
You will generally be required to pay in cash if you have to visit a doctor. Credit cards are not accepted.
