What matters most

What Matters When Choosing Your Cover

As an EU citizen, you register to live in Spain through the green-certificate route (the Certificado de Registro), not through a visa. If private cover is the right route for you, the plan that suits you is simply the comprehensive private healthcare you will actually use, chosen to fit how you live in Spain — there is no special visa product to buy.

So the useful question is not which plan “passes a rule” but which plan gives you the cover you want, at the level you want to pay for it. For customers wanting comprehensive Sanitas network cover without copayments, Sanitas Más Salud is the usual starting point; Sanitas Residents is another comprehensive network option, and Residents Platinum adds wider reimbursement and international benefits. Below is how they compare so you can pick with confidence.

  • Comprehensive access to Sanitas doctors, specialists and hospitals across Spain.
  • A no-copayment option so you are not paying per visit, if that suits you.
  • Cover you can use for everyday health, not just emergencies.
  • Family cover for a partner and children under one arrangement.
  • English-speaking help from quote through to using the cover.

The popular choice

Sanitas Más Salud Sin Copago

Sanitas Más Salud Sin Copago is the usual starting point for customers who want comprehensive Sanitas network cover without copayments. Covered services do not carry an additional copayment when used; the cost is included in the regular premium — so your costs are predictable and using the cover feels effortless.

You get access to the full Sanitas network of doctors, specialists, diagnostics and hospitals in Spain, and you book and manage everything through the Mi Sanitas app. If you want a plan you will genuinely use for day-to-day health without thinking about per-visit charges, this is usually the first one to look at.

For couples and families

Más Salud Familias for Couples and Families

If you are registering as a couple or moving with children, Sanitas Más Salud Familias brings everyone together under one no-copayment family arrangement, with the same comprehensive network access. It is designed for households rather than a single person, and it keeps family cover simple to manage.

Where you want an even broader family plan, Más Salud Familia Plus extends the range further. We will help you weigh the family options against how you actually use healthcare, and quote whichever fits.

Other options

Sanitas Residents and Residents Platinum

Beyond Más Salud, Sanitas Residents is another comprehensive network option; Residents Platinum adds wider reimbursement and international benefits — including worldwide reimbursement, a dedicated USA Cover benefit and higher emergency cover abroad, which suit people who travel or keep healthcare ties in more than one country.

One point to be accurate about: the general Sanitas Residents and general Sanitas Residents Platinum plans have waiting periods under their terms. That simply means some benefits become available after an initial period, as set out in the policy — we will explain how it applies to your situation. If your priority is a straightforward no-copayment plan for everyday healthcare, Más Salud is usually the better fit; if you want the wider international benefits, Platinum is the one to look at.

One distinction to keep clear: for qualifying non-EU visa or residence applications there are Visado versions — Sanitas Residents Visado and Sanitas Residents Platinum Visado — which provide cover with no copayments and no waiting periods for those applications. As an EU citizen you register through the green-certificate route rather than a visa, so these Visado versions are not aimed at you; the general plans above are the ones to look at.

Older applicants

If You Are Over 60

If you are 60 or over, Sanitas Único is designed with older applicants in mind and is worth including in the comparison. As with every plan, acceptance and terms depend on your circumstances, so the best next step is a personalised quote rather than a guess — tell us your ages and we will show you the options that genuinely fit.

How to choose

How to Choose Your EU Residency Plan

The right plan comes down to a few simple preferences:

  • Want no per-visit charges? Start with Más Salud Sin Copago (or Más Salud Familias for a household).
  • Registering as a couple or family? The Familias plans keep everyone under one arrangement.
  • Want wider international and USA cover? Look at Residents Platinum.
  • Over 60? Ask us about Sanitas Único alongside the Más Salud options.
  • Not sure? Tell us how you live and we will recommend the closest fit — there is no cost to ask.
