Health insurance for your Residencia in Andalucia. 

A recent requirement for living in Spain is that Expats have a minimum requirement of a health insurance policy to be able to obtain a Residencia. Many are turning to Private Health Care and Medical Insurance in Spain. 

Private Health Insurance is big in Spain. Longer life expectancy and the great Mediterranean diet, sunshine and proximity to the United Kingdom, lure many to Spain The National Health Service in Spain is fabulous, but like the UK, waiting times are getting longer ass the system comes under stress from the number of people using the system. 

Advances in medicine, and the rising costs of Health Care is being offset with insurance. Some insurance companies in Spain will cover some pre-existing conditions and the premium is based on your age and medical history. Health insurance policies in Spain are usually annual policies and start from January and end in December. If you contract a policy in September, you will be required to pay for the premium from September to the end of December and renew the policy in January. 

With Private Health Insurance you can visit a Doctor that is on the list of Doctors provided by the Health insurance Provider. If you want a specific Doctor in a certain area, then find out what Health Insurance companies have that Doctor on their lists. Doctors do operate for several different insurance companies and the medical centre or Doctor you want to use will tell you which insurance companies he is operating under.  

Be aware that some Health Insurances operate in specific areas and may not cover you anywhere else in Spain. Contact our Health and Medical Insurance specialists and we can tell you which Health Insurance covers the areas you want to be covered for. 

Health Insurance premiums increase with age and usually within 5-year increments. You will be given a Health Insurance Card and a booklet containing the list of Doctors surgeries, hospitals, specialists and medical centres that you can use throughout Spain. 

Some Health Insurance companies will allow you to see any doctor of your choice anywhere in the world and you will have to pay for the consultation upfront and then be reimbursed by the health insurance company you have contracted. Not all operate in this way and you may not get back the full amount. 

Cancelling or changing a Health insurance provider.

If you decide after some time that you are not happy with the Health insurance company you are using, you will need to make sure that you have notified the health insurance company of cancellation at least 3 months in advance. You will not be able to cancel it within the last two months and you will be charged the next years premium, and they will take you to court if you do not. 

When changing to another health Insurance provider, they may, in some cases, accept any existing medical conditions to secure your business, but check first before changing as premiums may be affected.

LIFE INSURANCE IN ANDALUCIA.

Life insurance in Spain can provide you with mortgage protection, a lump sum to cover your funeral and funds for your family in the event of your death, by accident or ill health. Terminal illnesses and critical illnesses are also covered. 

It is very important to remember that life insurance can also form part of your Estate and be caught up in the inheritance tax trap. It is important to make sure that the Life insurance policy you contract, will cover you for any future needs, such as moving to a different country. Not all life insurance policies in Spain offer worldwide cover, so be careful. 

As always, the earlier you start a Life Insurance policy, the cheaper it will be. Whole of life, which covers you until death, at whatever age, or term life insurance, which covers you for a specific period, are two of the most common ones. 

Life insurance Companies can also offer a life insurance policy that has a certain amount of investment in it so that if you are protecting a mortgage or loan, as the value of the loan or mortgage decreases, the value of the life insurance increases. 

Don’t take life insurance policies from Spanish Banks. They are more expensive, offer less cover, and usually increase in premium every year, even though the cover amount will remain the same. Banks in Spain have been trying to make life insurance compulsory as a condition of taking up one of their mortgages or loans. This practice has been made illegal, so don’t let the Spanish Banks bamboozle you into taking one of their life insurance policies.
