Medical Card / GP Visit Card eligibility checker
Do you qualify for a Medical Card or GP Visit Card?
Answer a few plain questions about your wages, household and costs. You'll get a clear yes or no for both cards — and if it's a no, exactly what the problem is.
You will need the following information to use this checker
- •Details of your earnings (eg pay slip)
- •Bank statements showing your savings
- •Details of investments or property you own (not your home)
- •Your partner's income details, if you have one
- •PRSI, pension or union deduction amounts (usually on your pay slip)
- •Details of your household costs — rent, mortgage, childcare, travel to work
