Further to what you have posted, I wonder what a Chinese wife in China could receive, if anything, from the UK if her Brit pensioner husband died there! Another thing is if an old Brit with little savings who had been living abroad became seriously ill in China, and returned to the UK without having any property there, could he get free NHS treatment and/or free housing? Or would he be left in the mire by social services? Couldn't be deported, anyway.
NHS is free to all UK citizens but remember there are rules on Non Domiciled and Resident etc..etc.. http://www.res-non-dom.barclays.com/moving-to-england/ look down to "Thinks to think about"
Maybe a trip to the UK Embassy would be in order to find out more or to get who to contact..
