Migrants to face NHS care charges
 

Long overdue IMHO...go to many countries abroad and the first thing you are asked for is your insurance cover note.

I foresee the number of emergency admissions rising to astronomical levels.

I prefer this version which is from the comments section in your link,
No insurance, no entry into the UK, if the customs officers did their job properly there wouldn't be any need for this.

Easy solution for administering this approach.
All you brits must at all times carry papers which must be surrendered for examination on demand to anyone at all who might want/need to look at them.:yeah:

But then again, didn't your tories just reject two studies into this subject they commisioned themselves, because the data the studies produced showed the scare stories the party peddle to be complete bollox?:hmmm:

The article could have been taken from Sweden, so is the condition here too.

I'm not saying this position is unique to the UK but I have personal experience of having lived in Holland where health insurance was an absolute priority for expats.

Thanks for reminding me. I must not forget to insure myself before my trip

The anti lobby is already spouting off things like..great women have to give birth in the streets now! Sorry about the heart attack tough luck..ect ect ect.

No doubt they will take it up with the EU and well lets see what will happen.

It has already been stipulated that no emergency cases will be turned away...it is those with pre-existing conditions plus dental and optical requirements who will need to pay.

Much like so many other countries.

Means nothing to the loon lobby jim.

Well in all fairness I did say "I foresee the number of emergency admissions rising to astronomical levels." in the first post.

Obviously in these times of austerity and with an election looming not too far off these are the issues politicians are going to have to address.

Address!!!...More like fudge it up big time.

So whats new?
