Our services
The LHS plans and provides a comprehensive health service for everyone in Links Land.
Free at the point of use
Our core services are free when you use them. The only exception is where Parliament expressly provides otherwise by law (Linkslandic Health Service Act 2026, section 3B(b)).
You will not be asked to pay at the door, at the reception desk or before treatment for a core service.
Fair treatment for everyone
We will not refuse you care or treat you less well because of a ground prohibited by the Unity and Equality Act 2025 (LHS Act 2026, section 3B(c)).
You will not be refused urgent or necessary care because you do not have a Health ID, cannot show it, or disagree with it. We can check the paperwork after you have been treated (Health Identity and Interoperability Act 2026, section 2B(c)).

Section 3B(a) of the LHS Act 2026 lists our core services: primary care, emergency care, hospital care, maternity and child health, mental health, sexual health, dental care, pharmacy, elderly and dementia care, rehabilitation and public health.
