Not contacting Healix, or not following their instructions, could affect your claim. Healix must agree, any emergency travel expenses involving air travel beforehand. If it is not possible to make contact with Healix before you are admitted to hospital or before any medical expenses are run up, because emergency treatment is required you must contact them as soon as you can.
Private medical treatment is not covered in countries where reciprocal health agreements entitle you to benefit from public health care arrangements unless authorised by Healix. Healix has the medical expertise, contacts and facilities to help you if you are injured in an accident or fall ill. Healix will also arrange transport home when this is considered to be medically necessary or when you are told about the illness or death of a close relative or a close business associate at home.
