Closed petition: Review how the NHS is checking eligibility for free treatment
Closed on
Review how effectively the NHS carries out eligibility checks on patients accessing the NHS for long term treatment, and if they are checking ID at each appointment.
I am concerned for the future of our NHS. I am concerned that patients are not always being made to confirm whether they are eligible for NHS treatment. I believe that to keep the NHS as long as possible, we should have to prove our eligibility to access it.
