You can apply for dependent visa if your husband is on Tier 2 visa.

You can also come as Standard Visitor but your not allowed to use any NHS services. In case of any emergency medical treatment is very expensive in UK.

Your allowed to use NHS services inequal to British Citizens, if you are on a dependent visa because you pay IHS while applying visa.

If I m not concerned about medical service then I think it's ok to get standard visit visa?
