Had an accident in Spain last year, went to the local health clinic, doctor checked me and advised to go to hospital some 10 miles away. Checked in to a &e within 15 minutes, doctor arranged x-ray, another 10 minutes, back to doctor who was not happy with x-ray, return for second x-ray, same doctor examined second x-ray, leg put in plaster from ankle to just below knee. Had to pay €15 for crutches
All done and dusted within 90 minutes, great service, and done on EHIC , no questions asked about private insurance.
