Who is entitled to free medical aid of UK?

In the United Kingdom, free medical care is available to all permanent residents, regardless of their nationality. This includes British citizens, citizens of other European Union (EU) countries, and citizens of countries outside the EU who have settled status in the UK.

To be eligible for free medical care, you must be registered with a GP (General Practitioner) in the UK and have a valid National Insurance number. You may be asked to provide proof of your residency status, such as a passport or a UK driving licence.

If you are not eligible for free medical care, you may be able to get help with the costs of treatment through the NHS Low Income Scheme. This scheme offers financial support to people on low incomes who need to pay for NHS care.

You can also get free medical care in the UK if you are:

* A student from an EU country or Switzerland who is studying in the UK

* A refugee or asylum seeker who has been granted permission to stay in the UK

* A member of the armed forces or their dependants

* A prisoner or patient in a secure hospital

If you are unsure whether you are entitled to free medical care in the UK, you should contact the NHS for advice.
