What is the benefit of an ehic card?

The European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) provides access to necessary healthcare services in EU countries and some other participating nations at reduced costs or sometimes for free. It ensures that travelers can receive medical treatment under the same conditions as local residents, which can be crucial in emergencies. Additionally, having an EHIC can help avoid exorbitant medical bills while abroad. However, it doesn't replace Travel Insurance, as it doesn't cover all types of care or repatriation.
