[QUOTE="azure, post: 846589, member: 39639"] Hi Nadine, I tried to find an information page to link you to, but I couldn't find one that had all the information on. However, please don't panic. Some of my friends are from EU countries and live in the UK and they get free NHS (National Health Service) treatment just like UK citizens do. However, you may need to provide proof that you're entitled to be here and explain why you're in the UK (for example, are you coming to work, or coming as a student?) I suggest you get an EHIC card before you come here. That is a European Health Insurance Card that proves you're entitled to healthcare in Europe. I also suggest you make sure you have enough insulin and other supplies to keep you going for a few weeks. If you can get a letter from your doctor explaining your treatment briefly, that would also be good as it may speed things up. Is there an organisation you can contact in the Netherlands that can give you advice about moving to another European country? Are you moving here alone? Do you have a job? Do you know where you'll be living? [/QUOTE]
