<p>The United Kingdom Government has proposed to all Member States that we should
maintain existing reciprocal healthcare arrangements, including the S1 scheme, until
31 December 2020 if the UK leaves the European Union without a deal. These arrangements
would safeguard healthcare for the hundreds of thousands of UK-insured persons who
live in Europe.</p><p> </p><p>I laid a Written Ministerial Statement (<a href="https://www.parliament.uk/business/publications/written-questions-answers-statements/written-statement/Commons/2019-09-26/HCWS1832/"
target="_blank">HCWS1832</a>) on 26 September 2019, setting out the Department’s progress
on no-deal reciprocal healthcare arrangements, and updated information has been published
on GOV.UK and NHS.UK on the situation for each Member State, including what arrangements
have been put in place. These pages will be kept updated as further assurances from
Member States are received.</p>
