How are local medical facilities in Spain?
We asked members about local medical facilities in Spain, they wrote...
"I'm 0.5 kilometers from the hospital. It's a very good private hospital. The quality is very good. There are both public and private hospitals. I used the emergency service once and I'm very impressed at the speed and quality of care I received. It's much better than in the US," remarked another expat who made the move to Granada, Spain.
"Haven't used, but hear they are fine. Private insurance first year (about $80 per month with NO deductible), after that can get on state medical for free," explained one expat living in Granada, Spain.
