If you are stupid or greedy or selfish enough to consider private

accident and emergency services. No piggy backing AT ALL on the state

in a private healthcare scheme then there should be measures put in
place so you have to wait until the private ambulance turns up. If
you die in the meantime then tough, you made an "informed choice" and
the brochure looked good.

I wouldn't go that far - we are after all supposed to live in a
civilised society. Certainly no access to NHS prescriptions but as for
the rest - just send a bill for the full commercial value of the
service, make it a receipt if the person in question is in possession
of a credit card.
