Insurance for Spanish citizens and foreign nationals with NIE/Residency

An additional amount paid for each medical service used.

The copayment is a small additional amount that the client pays when using certain medical services, this allows us to offer a lower fee.

As we offer products that can be contracted with and without copays (with identical coverage in both cases), you can choose the product that best suits your needs. If you will be using your insurance infrequently, a copay product can be a good way to save on your premium. You can check the detail of copayments in each product sheet. These copays are billed monthly.

Service that allows you to talk to your doctor wherever you are. A great time saver and very useful for reviewing results, prescribing tests or prescriptions, emergencies…

Health insurance contracts have a duration of 12 months, except for Sanitas International Students and Sanitas Estudiantes.

The insurance is automatically renewed unless the policyholder gives notice of non-renewal at least one month before the end of the contract.

Waiting periods are the time that must pass from when you take out the insurance until you make use of certain services, which are usually diagnostic tests or complex treatments. For medical visits and simple diagnostic tests, such as blood and urine tests, ultrasounds, X-rays, etc. there are no grace periods and you can use them from day one.

It is important to know the grace periods that apply to the contracted product and you can consult them in the file of each product. If you already have other health insurance and you come to Sanitas, it is possible that these periods will be eliminated. Indicate it at the time of discharge.
