headline: UK-Guernsey reciprocal health deal including Alderney and Sark
text: A new agreement enabling Bailiwick of Guernsey residents to access free healthcare when in the UK starts from 1 January.
  Reciprocal Health Arrangement (RHA) also allows UK residents to access necessary healthcare when visiting the islands.
  RHA extends to the whole of the bailiwick, so visitors to and residents of Sark and Alderney are also covered.
  - described as "landmark" - was signed earlier this year.
  rrangement also means certain treatments, such as dialysis treatment - could be arranged ahead of travel to the other jurisdiction for free.
  ry healthcare while in the UK, bailiwick residents will need to provide documentation that proves their eligibility to access healthcare under the RHA, such as passport, driving licence or other proof of address or travel. 
  UK visitors to the Bailiwick should bring their GHIC or EHIC card with them.
  States of Alderney said travel insurance was still strongly advised, as the RHA does not cover everything that a person may require when travelling - for example, repatriation is not covered.
