The interviewers want to make sure that all of your questions about the NHS or job role are answered during the interview. It is best to ask at least a question or two, showing the interviewers your eagerness to learn all you can. Of course, you want to review the job announcement and research the NHS beforehand so you are not asking questions that could be found during your research.
Also, you want to avoid asking questions about salary or benefits. The salary and benefits package is often listed on the job announcement or discussed with Human Resources when offered the position. If you ask about money or the benefits package, it makes the interviewers think you are most interested in the monetary aspect of the job. Of course, talking about the salary or benefits is perfectly acceptable if the interviewers ask about your salary expectations. However, you do not want to bring it up yourself.

"Thank you for asking. Yes, I do have a couple of questions. First, when would you like to have this position filled? And second, are there any required qualifications you do not see on my resume?"
