Hi everyone, a little help please.

Having spent many holidays in our duplex in Almadraba, El Campello we have taken the plunge and sold our property in the U.K.  to live in Spain. We should be arriving within the next 3 weeks but cannot decide which is the best way to go regarding health insurance. My wife had breast cancer but now is fit and well. I have been shocked at the on line quotes so far for private health care.

Maybe convenio especial at 60 Euros/month each is the best solution until we each reach our 65th birthdays next year.

Anyone's advice to us would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

Pete and Jan H.

Forgive me if this doesnt answer your point, but it may help. 

I understand that there has been a royal decree stating that there will be free healthcare provision in Spain? Not sure of the actual details or when it is supposed to come in to force?

Try doing a web search or even contact https://www.citizensadvice.org.es/

I recommend you sign up to their updates in any case.

Hope it helps

Hi Kim, so sorry I didn't have the time to reply yesterday. Jan and I would like to thank you so much for your detailed response to our need for help. We will indeed seek health care cover quotes from the likes of ASSSA to enable us to achieve Residencia. You have been a great help to us and by the looks of it a great many others. Wishing you well, regards Pete & Jan
