Free core NHS services via NHS.uk

The NHS provides a range of core health services free at the point of use for UK residents: GP appointments, A&E, hospital treatments and many community services are provided without charge. Specific entitlements such as free prescriptions, dental or sight tests vary by nation and circumstance (for example Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have different prescription rules), so check eligibility and local arrangements on the NHS website. Access services and find local providers or online health guidance at the NHS homepage and through NHS 111 where available.
