UK travellers require £181.7 million worth of medical treatment abroad in 2025, according to reporting based on claim data. The figures cover healthcare provided outside the UK and the amount paid out for treatment. Across Europe, Spain accounts for the largest share of claims, representing more than four out of ten incidents, with £24.1 million spent on treatments there. Poland is reported as the second-highest destination, described as a frequent location for unexpected medical issues among travellers. The coverage indicates that the overall total of £181.7 million reflects payments associated with medical care sought by UK travellers while travelling in Europe. While Spain is identified as the leading country by both number share and total spending among the European destinations, Poland is highlighted as the next most significant location in the distribution of claims. The reporting does not provide additional country-by-country rankings beyond the top figures mentioned, but it frames the data around where claims occur and where spending is highest.
