If you are both retired then you will be eligible for state health care in Cyprus. You each need to get the S1 Form from the DWP and then hand it in at the Citizens Service Centre in Cyprus and then you will be issued with a Medical Card which you show at the State Hospital. Many Expats also take out private medical care if they can afford it or feel happier having it.
