Karen, I think you would need travel insurance to travel from the U.K to Turkey and back, as the Health Insurance in Turkey would not cover your travel.

Check with your bank Karen.   We have annual travel insurance with our Bank  and also use of Airport Lounges, discount on theatre tickets and discount on any travel bookings with them,  though the account we have.
