Be careful if you have to use your EHIC card in Spain or Greece.
Apparently hospitals have been trying to route patients through private channels when arriving for urgent treatment, thereby making any treatment chargeable.
There is an article on moneysavingexpert.com explaining the details.
As I understand it there shouldn't be a problem if you don't sign any authority to go privately so be aware! :thumbs:

You will also find that holiday travel insurance small print often refers to the need to use your EHIC when visiting the doctor or hospital if the insurance is to pick up the bill. So even with private medical cover EHIC is necessary.
