Most British people go abroad in holiday, to visit family, or on short business trips. People are advising to find out how to get urgent treatment before leaving the UK. They have to get a form which explains that they should do if they fall ill or have an accident, and what arrangements exist in each country with medical treatment. The regulations are fairly simple but whether people do not have this information, they may find that private medical care is extreme expensive. It is not unusual for people to discover that they do not have money enough with them to pay the total costs and in such circumstances an already difficulty situation becomes even more complicated.
