E111 and travel insurance???
Can someone explain the difference.
Do you need both when going abroad (Spain) or just the one.
Got the insurance via the travel agent but do i need an E111? ? ? (or what ever it's called today)
If you could explain the difference that would be great
Thanks

The E111 is for getting free treatment should you need it when on holiday, travel insurance is more geared at protecting you and your posessions whilst on holiday and getting you back home should anything go wrong.

I'm lucky or unlucky enough to have Denplan, private dentist cover.
Lucky if i need a dentist outside the UK
Unlucky, coz it cost the earth
But at least my teeth don't interfere with my "dinner dates"
