It was working earlier and has now been pulled by the look of it - too much CBF traffic heading that way. I think it said you are allowed to be ill for a maximum of 90 days in any 180 day period. Anyone being ill longer will be fined 810 TL and have to queue up for an MOT and a pipe up their exhaust.

The site had been updated Mark regarding RP's, not the heath insurance bit.

You can get to the site via Rindaloo's link, but no mention now of healthcare anywhere, even more in the dark now!!

I am wondering how we are going to officially be informed of this.  Or is the Government relying on expats finding out this information via expat forums???

I had a look as well and it said that it the Ministry of Health had verbally informed that there was a proposal to postpone the new health insurance changes until December 2012. The law had to be approved by parliament though.

There must be hundreds if not thousands living here who don't read forums. So my thinking is - if they can't find you (or can't be a*s*d) to inform you personally that you HAVE to join this scheme - how are they going to find you to fine you if you don't. Just a thought.
