DKV SELECCION Policy for over 75s Its not the best and we tell you why

The Only Medical Insurance in Spain for the 75 plus

We receive many enquires a month for this over 75s Medical Insurance and the reason for this is that there is no other insurer in Spain who will consider Insuring anyone over the age of 75.

In comparison to the DKV Integral Insurance it falls far short of the cover. This policy does not offer preventative screening and there are clauses where if you are injured in a car accident there is no cover.


This is an insurance which is not available in all of Spain's provinces. We are also quick to point out that there are very few medical centres that accept the Seleccion Medical Card and each year we see less and less location options. So there you have it an insurance that falls short of what is required for peace of mind. Yet despite this some people take the attitude some cover is better than no cover and decide to proceed with the 96,00€ per month that it costs.

In fact we prefer not to sell this insurance as it is not a great product. However we do so because it does suit some people who are over 75 that need to show the Government Authorities that they have health cover. We have also seen a number of over 75s use the Policy to obtain Visa or Residency despite the fact that it does have a 3 euro Copago (policy excess per claim) which essentially means that the authorities if being extra strict refuse residency/visa because it has a Copago.

So the upshot is that we will sell you this policy but warn you of the shortfalls from day 1.

DKV do still sell you a Normal Comprehensive policy if you are just under 75 and once insured as long as you pay you can continue the policy for your life time. If you are a particularly fit 75 yr old and not reached 75 1/2 years of age we might possibly still convince DKV to offer you a standard comprehensive policy. This would be at the Insurers discretion.

So the decision is yours. Not often you get an agent who does not want to sell a product but there you go we like to be honest and as I say for some people some cover is better than NO COVER

Our change of Healthcare insurance on moving to Spain

Our Healthcare experience moving from UK to Spain

If you're moving to Spain it's worth obtaining a medical insurance quote from a Spanish Health Insurer. When I moved to Spain I arrived with my BUPA cover in place after they informed me the policy was worldwide.
On arrival in Spain my daughter was ill and because of this I checked the policy in more detail, only to find that cover worldwide was restricted to 120 days abroad. I reported this to BUPA as their error, after all I had made it very clear I was moving to live in Spain permanently.

Bupa then put me in touch with Sanitas their partner in Spain who offered me a new Bupa-Sanitas insurance for 2 adults and 2 children 390 euros a month. This was 150 cheaper than the UK premium I had been paying, so at the time was I happy.

Within 18 months after too many authorization problems and delays in getting authorizations I left Bupa Sanitas and joined DKV Seguros taking up their Integral Elite Policy which insured all four of us for 250 euros a month. The change was a good one and as a family we have been happy for last 8 years with premiums rising with age and occasionally with inflation.

Since then as you can see from this article I became an agent for DKV and now sell medical insurance mainly to Expats living or moving to Spain. In that time a lot of expats who struggle with making themselves understood have transferred their existing DKV policy to our agency where we provide support.

Spain is a great place to live and retire. The sheer volume of European expats requiring health insurance has meant that competition is fierce and premiums can be a lot cheaper than insuring in the UK. Also because you cannot insure a pre-existing condition with any insurer its worth knowing that treatment & surgery etc is a lot cheaper if you have to pay for it yourself.
A trip to any of the Costa del Sol Private Hospitals will confirm there are a lot more people using Spanish private health facilities on a daily basis. Higher volumes have resulted in lower medical cost charges which ultimately have reflected in lower premiums across the board. Most insurers also offer what is known in Spain as Copago where you can reduce the premium further by contributing a small amount of the treatment cost each time you attend, a system that works well for low users.
Tailor Made Health Solutions Spain will provide you with an affordable Quote and an excellent health cover policy with initial summary of cover in English.
Our insurer is widely accepted by the majority of medical centres across Spain and has one of the largest medical networks of all the insurers.
