The National Health Service (NHS) is, mainly, for the benefit of people living in the United Kingdom (UK). If a person is accepted for NHS treatment it is generally free, although there can be charges for some things. Being exempt from charges for NHS treatment will depend on a number of conditions described in the booklet which you can download below.
This booklet sets out information about who does not have to pay charges and also tells you about the help you might get with the cost of a range of services provided by the NHS and help with travel costs.
