Hello Brian
I'm assuming you both have residencia here, I've seen this answered before & I don't think it would, so she will have to apply in her own right when the opportunity arises, probably getting PHI until that time, if necessary.

"supposedly" after 5 years of residency and at the point you become permanent residents your wife should be entitled to medical cover equal to that which the Spanish enjoy, without cost. Not the same as free but better than nothing.
