I cannot imagine how healthcare would be easily

Isn't NHS Scotland a separate organisation to NHS England?


Indeed it is and always has been. Created in a seperate act of
parliament as well:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nationa...land)_Act_1947

"Though the title 'National Health Service' implies one health service
for the United Kingdom, in reality one NHS was created for England and
Wales, accountable to the Secretary of State for Health and a separate
NHS was created for Scotland, accountable to the Secretary of State for
Scotland."
