Health Insurance for 5 days in Amsterdam

Hi,
I am full time student and i have HC2 from NHS. I am planning to go to Amsterdam in October for 5 days. Do i need to have health insurance and if i do how and where i can obtain cheap one.

Anyone who has been in Amsterdam can tell me about their experience of Shiphol Airport and how to travel around the city with cheap travel tickets.

Many Thanks
Be safe

    Is it travel insurance you need?
    If so, try your local post office.

    have 5 days insurance cover for £5.50, i use this company all the time, and in the 1 time i've had to claim from them, cause of delayed flight, they paid on time.

    Is travel insurance different from Health Insurance??

    I went to some one and they said you will have to get travel insurance and health insurance. I have got travel insurance for 5 days at 5.50 that was a good deal. Thanks Saint_Chris for that offer.

    I think Health Insurance is something different or is it same??
    I am not EU National and I want to apply for visa as well so thats why someone said you have to show documents about Health Insurance???
    Can anyone guide me in this and tell me if its different and how can i get it if it is.
