How bad do you have to be to obtain NHS fully funded healthcare.?
Just typed your question directly into Google and got the usual references to Continuing Care and Eligibility Criteria; one such example would be NHS Choices: http://www.nhs.uk/CarersDirect/guide/practicalsupport/Pages/NHSContinuingCare.aspx Sorry to be unable to help further.
You might find some glimmer of hope in the Barker Commission’s “A new settlement for health and social care: final report from the Commission on the Future of Health and Social Care in England”. (September 4th 2014). These are only proposals at present, of course.
