According to the London Datastore there were an estimated 21.7 million international visitors to London in 2019. If just 5% of these visitors accessed NHS care, the cost would be approximately £83,545,000 based on an average cost to the NHS of £77 per visit. Given that you have called for the NHS to offer free healthcare to anyone without proving their immigration status, can you confirm if this extends to international visitors?
