Well of course he is entitled to it, but because the UK like to treat us ex pats like cr@p, you aren't apparantly. I'll be honest with you, there are people who do it. I also know of people that are still claiming UK benefits whilst living in Spain, but the Spanish & UK authorities are working closely now to the point of having exchange staff in each country.
You need to get the E106 I spoke of, but the trouble is that its probably already expired.
I think your best option is to go to someone like Sanitas for private health. Its relatively cheap in Spain. You can get an online quote here:
