MBA Spain Private Health in Spain |
An estimated 15% of the population holds private health insurance. This insurance is used either as a supplement or an alternative to public care. The advantage of private insurance is that the companies have their own group of hospitals, clinics and laboratories. Private doctors and private hospitals in Spain do not accept the European Health Card.
Private health insurance policies generally offer one or two major levels of coverage: a comprehensive coverage, including in-hospital care and services as well as the services of doctors, lab tests, x-rays and other scans, etc. in a non-hospital setting; and a basic coverage which is limited to all care and services relating to an in-patient hospital stay only.
In Spain, Private Health Insurance is dominated by a handful of companies. Sanitas and Asisa being two of the largest.
