A person with a valid EHIC may receive necessary treatment while on a temporary stay in another EU Member State. This necessary treatment includes public hospital treatment if it is deemed medically necessary by a medical practitioner.
As this is a service matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the Deputy directly in relation to the particular circumstances raised.
