The nearest Public Hospital to Altea is Hospital Marina Baixa, which is west of Benidorm (see link below). There are also public health centres in Altea and at least one is open 24 hours (see second link below). If using the public health facilities ensure you take along either the patients EHIC or GHIC and passport. If you are not using the public facilities you must ensure you have adequate travel insurance and that it covers pre existing conditions otherwise you will have to pay directly and private health care is not cheap. Public facilities will more than likely not have English speaking staff but most Private health care facilities do.
