It could cost between £5,000-£35,000 to repatriate a person
Visitors to the Isle of Man are being reminded to ensure that they have travel insurance ahead of their trips.
The advice comes from Manx Care's commercial development manager who says while emergency care is free - if a person is admitted for further treatment they would be required to spend thousands depending on the treatment needed.
Andrew Reed told Manx Radio UK residents would be covered, however those from outside won't be because there aren't any health agreements with their countries here.
He added if a person needed to be repatriated back to their own country it would be expensive:
Steam Packet freight ship bound for Jersey on 12-month charter
Police praise 'continued courage' of teenage sexual assault victim
Covid inquiry evidence related to PPE Medpro to be heard in private session
Service to mark 67th anniversary of the Winter Hill disaster
