Accessing UK NHS as a UK citizen with Spanish residencia
My wife and I obtained residencia in 2020 under the Brexit withdrawal agreement. We currently share our time between the UK and Spain as we have an elderly parent who benefits from our ongoing support. Neither of us are yet at pension age but have taken out private health insurance - as required to obtain residencia. We also have UK issued EHIC cards which expire in 2025.
What isn't clear to us is whether we are still able to access the UK NHS in the same way we could before obtaining residencia. The NHS web site doesn't make it clear so I have submitted an online query to them asking for clarification. Given that they are rather busy at the moment, a reply may be a long time coming.
Is anyone else in the same position and, if so, what is your opinion and can you point me to something official?
Thanks in advance!
Colin
