Specific introduction of medical insurance in Spain

Spanish immigrants are closely related to customers' family life, and people will have many questions, such as medical insurance system, taxes on living in the West and so on. The following 86 details Spain's medical insurance: Apart from Spain's blue sky and white clouds and safe food, it is believed that Spain's perfect social welfare, free medical insurance and advanced medical level are also a major reason to attract investors to Spain. Although Spain believes in the principle of equality before medical needs, Spain's completely free medical system is only open to Spanish citizens (holding Spanish nationality) and settlers who pay social security in Spain. Because of the particularity of investment immigrants, not every investor will work and pay social insurance after coming to Spain, so generally speaking, it is particularly important to buy a high-quality private/medical insurance.

In Spain, a society with universal coverage, if you pay for medical treatment yourself, the cost will be staggering. To give a simple example: the registration fee for going to the hospital for emergency treatment is about 200 euros, and the cost for calling an ambulance by phone ranges from 150 euros to 250 euros each time. If you are hospitalized, it ranges from several hundred Euros/day to one thousand Euros/day, and there is no upper limit.

Usually spend tens of euros a month to buy a reputable private medical insurance, which can reimburse most medical expenses. If you upgrade, you can achieve 100% reimbursement, and even some top private insurance companies provide insurance for serious illness in the United States. Another option unknown to overseas Chinese is to join Spain's public medical system at their own expense: this policy is a new policy introduced by the Spanish government since 20 13, aiming at enabling foreigners living in Spain to enjoy the same quality of medical services as Spanish citizens. At present, each autonomous region has its own requirements and policies.

It is worth noting that both private insurance and self-funded public insurance generally do not include free medicines and dentists (except for the removal of wisdom teeth), so investors may need to buy another dental insurance if they have special needs to see a dentist.
