    French to help save NHS

    This could have gone under the NHS or Carillon threads in General, but I hope everyone has their correctly-coloured passports and their EHIC cards.

      I don’t see why it shouldn’t, it’s part of a 2016 agreement between the Kent and Calais equivalents.

      It won’t be available for anyone on the NHS by the looks, it may rely on referrals from Kent.

      It’s no different, apparently, from what many hospitals across continental Europe do when they’re on or near the border. There’s no financial implication on the offering hospital because they’ll be back charging to the home country, it’s simply making more efficient use of available doctors and nurses.
