Short answer
Health would become part of the Irish system. Ireland's health service works differently: many people pay to see a GP, and no plan has said how a free-at-the-point-of-use service here would be kept or paid for.
What we know Fact
- In Northern Ireland, GP visits are free for everyone.
- In the Republic, GP care is free only for those with medical or GP visit cards; others pay per visit.
What is still unclear Interpretation
Unity campaigners have not set out how health care would be funded or organised.
Our view Pro-Union
Free health care when you need it is one of the most valued parts of life in the UK.
