Introduce a charge for foreign nationals using our health service
A simple request to follow the lead of many other countries, instead of allowing a free NHS service for visiting foreign nationals introduce a charge and those individuals will have to pay for the NHS service as we have to via our tax system or they purchase travel insurance prior to visiting the UK.
Thus reducing the drain on our resources and taxes and introducing a new revenue stream to the NHS for services rendered.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.
You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
Please see - Foreign nationals must have the means to cover their healthcare whilst in the UK
