Health care in Spain is not universal


Thursday, July 01, 2010 | , ,

Health care in Spain is not universal: "El País article notes that only 27% of Spaniards know they may not be covered, even if they pay all their taxes.

In theory all children and those who have no resources are always attended to, but there are four groups of people where people will be asked to put their hand in their pocket
- The unemployed who have exhausted their right to benefit, and who have some sort of income or savings
- Spaniards who have lived in countries which have no reciprocal health deal with Spain, and who have some sort of income or savings
- People who have never worked, and who have some sort of income or savings
- And independent workers who are members of professional colleges who are not integrated into the Spanish system for autonomos or the self-employed

The Ministry for Health estimates that between 90,000 and 180,000 residents are in this situation,"
