 1) SSI contracted countries and health insurance:

Turkey has a Social Security Agreement with some countries. The contents of SSI agreements may be different for each country.In contracted countries, including health insurance, children who are under the guardianship of working or retired parents in Turkey can benefit from health insurance in the country they go to without any deduction in their SSI rights during their education.In order for the student to benefit from this right, he or she must obtain a document with a different code for each country from SSI.

Please learn the procedure you need to follow in order to benefit from health insurance from your SSI branch. The consulates of the country you are visiting can also inform you about the documents they request.
