This leaflet is designed to
help you through the minefield of appointments and treatment involved. It is
not “everything” but it is “most” of what you will encounter as you trundle
through the Spanish health system.
Andalucia Home help serviceThe Home Help Service is the set of preventive, training, and rehabilitative actions carried out by qualified professionals at home, with the aim of attending to the basic activities of daily life that the person in a situation of dependency needs.
To preserve home help services for dependent people and maintain employment in this work niche, the Extraordinary Plan of Social Action of Andalusia has been approved.
Within the Plan is the Consolidation Program of the Home Help Service, which grants transfers to Local Entities of Andalusia aimed at strengthening the Home Help Service. This is intended to ensure adequate coverage of the needs of the dependent population in an emergency situation or with economic difficulties.
Access to the Home Help Service financed by this Program is through the Community Social Services.
A new website that explains how British citizens should use their UK-issued European Health Insurance Cards (EHICs) has been launched as part of a campaign to clear up common confusion over how to obtain healthcare in Spain.
The website http://www.healthcareinspain.eu/ provides comprehensive information on the use of EHICs, whether visiting or living in Spain.
What you should know about the European Health Insurance Card
A UK-issued European Health Insurance Card should only be used to access medically-necessary state treatment during the course of a temporary stay in Spain. It does not provide access to all state treatment but for those in Spain on a temporary stay, it is the correct way to access state healthcare.
British citizens who live mainly in Spain should change the way they are registered, because for them the UK European Health Insurance Card is not the correct form of health cover. The new website provides an interactive questionnaire that, depending on personal circumstances, links British residents to the Spanish social security webpage or a search page for the local INSS office or local health centre.
It all came about because some friends look after a holiday home that is rented out; one family had trouble in that they contracted Hepatitis whilst on an extended holiday. So, because of the many accusations, the owners asked for the borehole water to be tested; the result was that although the water was “not nice” it didn’t cause the disease.
I will digress here for those that don’t know the difference; a borehole (perforacion in Spanish) is a very deep hole in the ground going far below the start of the water table. About nine inches across they vary from 25 metres to 90 metres deep. They rely on the pressure of water to sustain the flow out to your tap. On the other hand, a “normal well” (pozo artesano) is from two to four metres across, not normally deeper than 20 metres. It relies on having sufficient water in the well for your use, taking hours to refill to the original level before you opened the tap.
