For school, if an American student is traveling to Great Britain with a visa, would that student be required to have health care, and how much would it cost? (Health insurance) How does this work?

We do have free medical care for our own and foreigners can receive private treatment from our services. If they are asylum seekers or students the treatment is also free. You will have a student visa which you may need to show if you need to make a hospital visit, you should register with a GP as soon as possible when you arrive. Some services also have a small charge. Your place of study should tell you what you need to know about the system. You can take out private health insurance and use this if you prefer, Bupa is considered to be excellent. http://www.bupa.co.uk/promotions/B544/
