Example 5 Is a person working in Ireland who has been posted to this country by their employer in France entitled to an EU Medical Card under EU legislation? Answer: Yes – provided their earnings are subject to French social security legislation. Example 6 Is a person age 62 years who is in receipt of a social security pension from the U.K. and has self employment income of €7,000 per annum in Ireland entitled to an EU Medical Card under E.U. legislation? Answer: No – this person will be means tested because their income of €7,000 p.a. is subject to P.R.S.I. Example 7 What is the eligibility of a couple resident in Ireland when one of the partner’s only income is a social security pension from the U.K. and the other partner works for the HSE? Answer: The person with the pension will be entitled to an EU medical card under EU legislation while the spouse/partner will be subject to a means test under national legislation. Example 8 Is a person with a social security pension from the U.K. and another social security pension from France, and has no other income, entitled to an EU Medical Card under EU legislation? Answer: Yes, because they are subject to the social security legislation of either the UK or France.
