Somanyolives - so many questions you need to ask!

This subject has been very well covered previously. A good look back through this message board will find most of the answers you need. Have a look here http://www.eyeonspain.com/Secure/ForumPostsDesc.aspx?thread=1145&dev=FB17&name=Healthcare%20in%20Spain for example, especially miket's post May 1st.

A lot will depend on your circumstances. Are you retirement age? And what region of Spain are you moving to?

P.S. lovely weather here right now!

Thanks for your very prompt reply Roberto! looks like I will have to get the dunces hat out, I had tried going through the healthcare section but got a bit bogged down as there is so much on there, so your bit of satnav has proved very helpful, I am now armed with the contacts needed which incidentally we had asked for at the doctor's surgery and know one seemed to be able to tell us!! Thanks again

Doesn't surprise me that no one at your surgery knew, but you better get used to that kind of thing, because here in Spain nobody knows anything! Thank God for EyeOnSpain!
