I've never been to the UK for so long as to incure a major illness, but a friend of mine spent a year abroad in Scotland two years ago. He tore or strained his ligaments (I can't remember), but I know that the treatment was really good and completely free of charge (and as he's no British national, he doesn't even pay indirectly for it). It seems that the system is really generous to foreigners
