Default SIP cards....

Hi Guys,

My son needs to go and see a doctor....nothing serious just what looks like lots of skin tags...but they are spreading, but our European Health cards expired on 01.11.2006 !

Can someone tell me as simply as possible as my heads spinning with lots of things at the mo.....how do I go about it ?

Newcastle have told us to contact the Spanish social security ? Where's that ? How ?

Someone said first of all we need our medical records from the UK....will they send them to us ...? I cant see it ! Do we give the nearest medical centres address to our UK doctors...?

Please can someone help, how did you go about it ? I'm so dizzy at the mo, my husbands really busy at the mo.....but this needs to be done asap

Any help would be wonderful !

You havent given enough circumstance information to answer this.

The first priority is to go and see the Doctor, they will tell you if they are not gonna see you, If you have used them before and are on his system they probably wont notice your card has just expired.

Secondly if you have notified Newcastle that you are no longer resident in the UK they probably wont issue you with a renewall as they will now not see you as their responsibility
If you are not qualified under the Expat Health cover rules which are mentioned in another thread here you probably wont get any cover with the Spanish INSS either.(unless you pay into the system)
So you are probably only left at this stage with a PayasuGo option with an expat clinic. But as i said at first go to the Doc's and throw yourself on the mercy of the system!!!

Not sure about your medical records, we brought ours out with us and handed them in at the clinic the first time we went, you do have to pay for they surgery in the UK to do them for you, but it was a simple thing. I don't know the ins and outs of registering here as that was done for us by our aftersales team, all we had to do was give them the Newcastle form, ours was a E121 as we are retired, and the next thing was we were taken to the clinic to get forst a temp SIP and then the plastic one was sent on to us. Perhaps your local town hall can help with where to go for the Social Security.

Mrs E, you haven't been out here that long .... how come your docs have expired?? We have E106 documents which don't expire until late 2008.

The nearest Seguridad offices I have seen are in the centre of Gandia.

Go to W H Smiffs in Oliva town and see the lady who runs it, she has kids and I know she's quite helpful.
