A beautiful apartment, fast Wi-Fi, sunshine…☀️💻 and a rejected visa application? 😕

For digital nomads moving to Spain, health insurance is not just another box to tick. It can be one of the most important parts of the visa process.

Many applicants assume that international travel insurance is enough. In reality, Spanish immigration authorities usually require compliant health insurance, not emergency-only travel cover. 🛡️ Policies may need to provide full medical cover, no co-payments, immediate cover from day one, and validity for the entire visa period.

The details matter. ✅ Co-payments, exclusions, waiting periods or an insurer not authorised to operate in Spain can create delays or complications.

At Just Insurance, we guide remote workers and international residents through the process of choosing suitable health insurance in Spain.

🔍 Understanding Key Insurance Terms in Spain - Explained Simply!

Whether you’re new to Spain or reviewing your policy, insurance terminology can be confusing. But understanding the basics helps you make smarter choices and avoid costly surprises. Here are some of the most important terms - clearly explained 👇

✔️ Excess
The amount you pay out of pocket if something happens.
Example: if your claim is €1,000 and your excess is €300, you pay €300, and the insurer covers the rest.
Choosing a higher excess can help reduce your insurance premium.

✔️ Liability cover
Covers damage or injury you may cause to other people or their property - but not your own.
• In car insurance, it’s legally mandatory in Spain.
• In some business activities, it’s also required.
• For home insurance, it’s not mandatory if it´s a place of your own residence, but highly recommended.

✔️ Comprehensive (All risk)
Sometimes misunderstood - many think it means “everything is covered, no matter what.”
• In car insurance, it includes damage to your own vehicle, even if you’re at fault - but not mechanical breakdown.
• In home insurance, it may cover accidental damage, but not wear and tear or old appliances.
Example: your child knocks over the TV? ✅ Covered. A 15-year-old washing machine stops working? ❌ Not covered.

✔️ Waiting periods (Carencias)
Some policies include a waiting time before certain benefits take effect.
This is common in health insurance, especially for surgeries, maternity, or advanced treatments. Always check what applies and when.

✔️ Underinsurance
When the insured amount is less than the real value of your home, car, or belongings.
If you make a claim, your compensation could be reduced proportionally.
Make sure your cover reflects current values.

✨ Ever heard of a house insured against ghosts? 👻

These days, you can insure almost anything - cars, homes… and, according to one well-known story, even a house in the UK insured against ghosts!

Whether real or just a clever legend, it’s a perfect example of how imaginative the world of insurance can be - protecting everything from the practical to the paranormal.

Because peace of mind comes in many forms - even ghost-proof ones. 😉

👉 What would you insure if you could protect absolutely anything?

🇪🇸 What Is the “Consorcio” and Why You Still Need Private Insurance in Spain?

If you live in Spain or own property here, you’ve probably heard of the Consorcio de Compensación de Seguros (CCS) - a public institution that protects policyholders from extraordinary risks.

But what exactly does that mean? 🤔

🌊 The Consorcio covers:

- Natural disasters (floods, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions)
- Terrorist attacks or riots
- Damage caused by the armed forces during peacetime

In short, the Consorcio steps in when something truly extraordinary happens - the kind of events that regular insurers usually exclude.

💡 Here’s the catch:
The Consorcio only provides compensation if you already have a valid private insurance policy that includes a small CCS surcharge.
Without private insurance, there’s no Consorcio protection.

✅ In summary:
Private insurance → everyday risks
Consorcio → extraordinary risks

At Just Insurance, we make sure you’re protected on both fronts - giving you peace of mind no matter what life brings.

💡 How much does one day in a private hospital in Spain really cost without insurance?

🛏️ Standard hospitalization (basic room) - from €300 to €600/day

🧪 With additional procedures and services - up to €1,200/day

🚑 Intensive Care Unit (ICU) - from €1,000/day and upwards

For comparison: the average private health insurance policy in Spain costs about €600 -1100/year depending on the age.
That means a yearly policy costs less than 2-3 days of hospitalization.

👉 Would you choose to pay for insurance regularly and have peace of mind - or take the risk and hope hospitalization isn’t needed?

When Insurance Was a Bet on Your Life 🎲

🧐 Did you know that in the 18th century, people could take out life insurance on someone else without their knowledge?

📜 Before 1774, anyone could insure someone else’s life, even strangers - essentially betting on their death. This obviously led to moral hazards ⚠️ and even cases of fraud 🕵️.

To stop this, the British Parliament passed the Life Assurance Act of 1774, which:
✅ Required insurable interest - you could only insure someone if you had a legitimate financial stake in their life.
✅ Limited policy payouts to the actual financial loss, preventing over-insurance.
✅ Made insurance a tool for protection 🛡️, not speculation 🎰.

💡 Why it matters today: This law laid the foundation for modern life insurance and shows how risk management has always evolved to protect people, not just policies.

⚖️ A reminder that behind every policy is history, innovation, and the constant pursuit of your security.
