  • What the programme didn't address was treatment of European citizens. I believe the arrangement is to bill their country for the healthcare they receive but would love to know if those bills are paid.
    I do remember quite a few years ago being in a and E and an American gentleman had been taken off a cruise ship after a heart attack. They kept him in a and e until his flight home instead of admitting him. I presume once admitted he might have had to stay as too ill to fly and it was obvious he wanted to go home.

    My Mam works in a hospital and had told me this, she has said we don't bother presenting the bills to the respective countries. I don't know if this is true tbh, my Mam has 'opinions' which may skew the facts
