Based on the information available, the person concerned will qualify for treatment benefit as a dependant spouse on her husband's insurance record.

In order for a formal approval of eligibility to issue to her dentist, she should complete and return a signed DE2 form to the Treatment Benefit Section of the Department in Letterkenny.  The relevant form has issued to her home address for completion.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
