There's no such thing. No one ever has to think about whether they're covered for certain conditions, the NHS handles everything (or doesn't. They're much better at some things than others). You just go to your GP and they deal with your problem, or send you to a specialist. No charge for anything, possible waiting list for mental health issues and some other things.

And as this story illustrates, while the care is “free,” the level of care one receives appears to be politically motivated. Gender dysphoria is fast-tracked; autism takes years.
