Choosing health insurance in Spain can feel difficult if you do not speak Spanish. Sanitas may be a strong option for many expats, but understanding policy terms, medical network access, appointments, authorisations and visa requirements can still be confusing. Spanish Health Insurance helps English-speaking clients compare Sanitas options clearly before they apply.
Can you?
Yes, many expats use Sanitas in Spain, but using healthcare in another language still requires care. Doctors, dentists and medical centre staff speaking English cannot be guaranteed, so it helps to plan ahead.
