Healthcare wrote:If you are a visitor to the UK or have temporary permission to live here (known as 'limited leave to remain'), you may be able to register with a GP in your area and receive free treatment. The GP can decide whether or not to register you. You may not be able to receive the full range of hospital treatment, because you must be a permanent resident or have lived here for a year to qualify for it. This applies even if you are a British citizen or have lived or worked here in the past.

All visitors have access to A&E because that, by definition, is an emergency rather than a chronic illness that needs constant attention. Generally a private health plan is not available to non-residents so she should investigate a plan in her own country that can be used outside. Don't confuse a private health plan with travel insurance; they are not the same thing.
The tone of your post in somewhat obscure. Can you confirm that you are fully aware that her two year visa does not permit 2 years of residence? It just means that she does not need to continually apply for visit visas for the next two years every time she wishes to travel to the UK. She can enter for a period of six months per visit.
