The civil partnership which is currently allowed in Britain may be contracted with any person whose national law does not forbid it on the grounds that the person in question is already married to somebody else. Whether or not it would be recognised in the other EU country is a moot point, as some Member States recognise this kind of partnership and others don't and the existing rules about the recognition of foreign marriages don't therefore necessarily apply. There seems no reason for his subsequently being refuse access to the NHS in his country, as EU nationals seeking medical treatment in any Member State are entitled to the same facilities as nationals of that Member State, provided that they have paperwork accrediting them as being entitled to those facilities in their national State. Isn't it best to check with the authorities of that other Member State to be sure of the status quo?

Yes of course...
I think the only problem that arises is when the partner is from outside the EU.
As for the NHS thing, I dont know
