Health tourism 'clarity' urged
Scots travelling abroad for medical treatment must have "clarity and certainty" over what will be paid for by the NHS, health secretary Nicola Sturgeon has said.
Ms Sturgeon spoke as the Scottish Government launched a consultation on the issue of health tourism.
The consultation is being carried out as the European Union is seeking to clarify the rules surrounding the issue.
