HomeThe relationship between the eegulations on the coordination of social security systems and the Directive on the application of patients’ rights in cross-border healthcare
Metadata for publikationen
After almost a decade of applying the Cross-Border Healthcare Directive 2011/24/EU, this report revisits some outstanding issues regarding cross-border healthcare in the EU, such as the relationship between the Social Security Coordination Regulations and the Directive, clear and comprehensive information provision to patients and the challenges of cross-border telemedicine services. While the above legal instruments – the Directive and the Regulations – coexist and create a complementary system, the rules are sometimes very complex and difficult for the institutions and healthcare providers to apply and for the citizens to understand. The Regulations and the Directive overlap in terms of personal and material scope but are not identical. Hence, to ensure that persons seeking healthcare abroad receive healthcare within the EU based on the instrument that is most advantageous to them, the rules must be clear and applied in a coherent way. This report consists of three substantive chapters. After the introduction, Chapter 3 deals with the analysis of the relationship between the Social Security Coordination Regulations and the Directive – within the EU legal framework. This in-depth analysis focuses on the objectives, the legal bases and the scope of the two instruments. Additionally, the rules on the different types of healthcare abroad are scrutinised, with separate subchapters dedicated to unplanned/necessary cross-border healthcare, planned treatments, and the situation surrounding the insured person’s place of residence.
