Public hospitals in Andalucia





The quality of health care and hospital facilities in Andalucia (and throughout Spain) is of a very high standard. There are excellent doctors, and highly trained Spanish medical staff and hospitals are equipped with the latest high-tech equipment. Andalucia has many excellent public and private hospitals in each of the eight provinces.

To qualify for free services in health centres and Spanish hospitals, you must either be registered with the state healthcare system, have private healthcare insurance, hold an EHIC (European Health Insurance Card) or be a national from a country with a bilateral health agreement with Spain. If not, you will be asked to pay medical fees unless it’s an emergency. Expats living and working in Spain  have access to the country’s free state healthcare insurance but some Spanish hospitals offer a combination of both public and private healthcare.


1. Brand new Hospital of Estepona 



In march 2019 Estepona is getting its own dedicated hospital. The hospital will be located on a six-hectare site on the west side of the town centre. It will become one of the most important health infrastructures seen in recent decades, and will be offering a top class and professional medical service. It will have specialised departments for radiology, hospitalisation, surgery, paediatrics, and women’s health and capacity to handle an expected 85,000 appointments and 90,000 emergency visits a year. For residents of Duquesa Port, Manilva, Casares and other local towns it means far shorter travel times when they need urgent medical care.

  2. Costa del Sol Hospital 



The Costa del Sol Hospital, on the main A-7 coast road 7km east of Marbella center, is one of the best-equipped hospitals in Spain. Inaugurated in December 1993, the hospital is run by an independent company on behalf of the (SAS) Andalucian Health Authorities.

It has a large out-patients department and a 24 hour accident and emergency department.

There are often voluntary interpreters on hand to help British and other nationalities communicate with the medical staff. With at least 15% of patients being non-Spanish speakers, this is considered a necessity for the smooth running of the hospital.

In 2017 The Costa del Sol Hospital was named the “best hospital” by The Andalucía public health service (SAS).
