Health Services: Foreign Nationals
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether his Department plans to review the circumstances in which non-UK nationals can use the NHS free of charge.
Answered by Karin Smyth
The Department has no plans at present to review the circumstances in which non-United Kingdom nationals can use the National Health Service free of charge.
We continue to work with NHS England to ensure that the system of cost recovery from overseas visitors works as effectively and fairly as possible.
