Being a full time resident here in Italy, we are having a month or so on holiday in another EU country (not in the UK, our country of origin). Does anybody know what 'travel' related health cover are we 'entitled' to ?

I'll be delighted to hear from you...................I have to 'declare' on Wednesday (first thing) so if your commercialista knows ...........that would be great..............I am happy to pay (if I should) but equally, happy NOT to pay if I shouldn't (if you know what I mean ?!).I am resident and do have a pension (taxed) in the UK over 10,000 euros p/a but nothing here in Italy. Does the fact that I transfer monies (say 2/3k per month) constitute an 'income'??Thanks for your help A,I'll await any response,Cheers and keep enjoying the heat !S

Thanks folks for the feedback.............Hard work finding this as there are SO MANY new posts !!I have re-posted a similar request which is all around income....................the nurse chappie asked did we have income over 10,000 euros.....................due to my limited Italiano lingua.................I couldn't understand if  we did have this as all our income is via UK pensions paid into a UK bank account.......................we then transfer a few grand per month over to live on.Is this few grand per month likely to be considered 'income' ??
