 Health care for EU citizens in Spain.EHIC - European Health Insurance Card (Tarjeta Sanitaria Europea) Medical treatment for visitors to Spain from EEA countries, which are countries in the European Union (EU) countries and Iceland, Liechtenstein Norway and Switzerland, is covered by the European Health Insurance card (EHIC) which was introduced in January 2006.  The European Health Insurance card (EHIC), also called European Health Card (ECH), is the replacement for the old E111 medical form, which is no longer valid. A European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) entitles holders to reduced-cost, sometimes free, medical treatment that becomes necessary while you’re in a European Economic Area (EEA) country or Switzerland.
