The S1 form is a document that allows patients to access healthcare in another European Union (EU) member state based on social insurance from their country of residence. It is a crucial tool for individuals insured in one EU country who require treatment in another member state.
What Does the S1 Form Entail?
The S1 form confirms that a patient is insured in one EU country and has the right to access healthcare in another member state at the expense of their insurer. This document is issued by the insurance institution in the patient's country of residence and allows them to access healthcare services under the same conditions as residents of the country where they are receiving treatment.
Patient Rights Related to the S1 Form
- Access to Healthcare: Patients have the right to use public healthcare services in the country where they are staying, based on insurance from their country of residence.
- Free Treatment: If the patient holds a valid S1 form, they can receive free healthcare under the same conditions as residents of the country.
- Right to Treatment: The S1 form may also cover family members who are financially dependent on the patient and live with them.
