This article discusses the NHS (Charges to Overseas Visitors) Regulations 1989 and subsequent amendments in relation to refused asylum seekers. It explores the impact of the regulations on the health care experienced by this group. The regulations have been chosen because of their contentious nature in relation to refused asylum seekers (Amnesty International, 2004). First, the evidence and rationale behind the formation of the regulations is examined. The article then considers how the restricted access to health care impacts on the health of refused asylum seekers and how this relates to international law. Lastly, it discusses inconsistencies within the regulations.
本文讨论了1989年《国民保健制度（对海外访客收费）条例》及其后与被拒寻求庇护者相关的修正案。探讨了这些条例对该群体所获医疗保健的影响。选择这些条例是因为它们在涉及被拒寻求庇护者方面具有争议性（大赦国际，2004年）。首先，审视条例形成背后的证据和理由。本文接着考虑获得医疗保健受限如何影响被拒寻求庇护者的健康，以及这与国际法的关系。最后，讨论条例中的不一致之处。
