Therefore, to prevent and tackle any type of pathology early, it is essential to have immediate access to medical care.</span></p><p style="padding: 12pt 0px; margin: 0px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; line-height: 1.15;"><span style="color: rgb(32, 33, 36); vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";">Although public health in our country is of a very high quality, having medical assistance insurance provides a series of advantages and benefits, among which we can highlight the following:</span></p><h3 id="h.8f4isboebq24" style="padding: 12pt 0px; margin: 0px; color: rgb(67, 67, 67); font-size: 14pt; line-height: 1.15; break-after: avoid; font-family: Arial;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 14pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";">Medical care without waiting lists</span></h3><p style="padding: 12pt 0px; margin: 0px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; line-height: 1.15;"><span style="color: rgb(32, 33, 36); vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";">Waiting lists are the endemic evil of our public health. The referral to the different medical specialties, as well as the performance of diagnostic tests, may have a delay of several months. Thanks to health care insurance, this time is reduced to a few days, depending on the specialty.</span></p><h3 id="h.nrvme2cb654s" style="padding: 12pt 0px; margin: 0px; color: rgb(67, 67, 67); font-size: 14pt; line-height: 1.15; break-after: avoid; font-family: Arial;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 14pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";">Direct access to medical specialists</span></h3><p style="padding: 12pt 0px; margin: 0px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; line-height: 1.15;"><span style="color: rgb(32, 33, 36); vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";">Another advantage of having insurance is the possibility of making an appointment directly with a specialist, without waiting for the GP to refer us. This allows each pathology to be addressed directly by the corresponding specialist, with the consequent saving of time. In health matters, a quick intervention can make a substantial difference in tackling a more or less serious ailment.</span></p><h3 id="h.habo31s7upqi" style="padding: 12pt 0px; margin: 0px; color: rgb(67, 67, 67); font-size: 14pt; line-height: 1.15; break-after: avoid; font-family: Arial;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 14pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";">Full board of the companion before an operation or childbirth</span></h3><p style="padding: 12pt 0px; margin: 0px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; line-height: 1.15;"><span style="color: rgb(32, 33, 36); vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";">When we have to go through the operating room, the following days are usually not very pleasant, the inconveniences derived from the operation are added to the stay in the hospital. At times like this, being able to enjoy a single room, as well as being able to share the stay with a family member, is a great help for recovery. With our insurance, the companion you choose can stay with you at no maintenance cost. In cases of birth, the procedure is the same, you can have a person by your side during hospital admission, without incurring any expense for three days.</span></p><h3 id="h.9ee9xyga1azg" style="padding: 12pt 0px; margin: 0px; color: rgb(67, 67, 67); font-size: 14pt; line-height: 1.15; break-after: avoid; font-family: Arial;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 14pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";">Travel Assistance</span></h3><p style="padding: 12pt 0px; margin: 0px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; line-height: 1.15;"><span style="color: rgb(32, 33, 36); vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";">In the event of an accident or serious illness during a trip, the medical assistance insurance covers all the expenses derived, as well as the transfer of a family member and the stay in a hotel. In addition, if a family member dies while traveling, we ensure early return. These are circumstances that we do not usually think about when we go on vacation, but if they happen we appreciate having covers.</span></p><h3 id="h.62ar0f907mm4" style="padding: 12pt 0px; margin: 0px; color: rgb(67, 67, 67); font-size: 14pt; line-height: 1.15; break-after: avoid; font-family: Arial;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 14pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";">Possibility of adding a daily subsidy in case of hospitalization</span></h3><p style="padding: 12pt 0px; margin: 0px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; line-height: 1.15;"><span style="color: rgb(32, 33, 36); vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";">When we are admitted to a hospital, although we have covered the stay and meals, it is common for extra expenses to occur. Therefore, so that the ailment does not add financial damage, with medical insurance we can add a daily subsidy to help in these circumstances.</span></p><h3 id="h.f35hyde9tks0" style="padding: 12pt 0px; margin: 0px; color: rgb(67, 67, 67); font-size: 14pt; line-height: 1.15; break-after: avoid; font-family: Arial;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 14pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";">Dental Health Advantages</span></h3><p style="padding: 12pt 0px; margin: 0px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; line-height: 1.15;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman"; color: rgb(32, 33, 36);">The dentist is one of the specialists in which we spend the most money. Conservation and aesthetic dental treatments are quite expensive, despite being necessary. The savings of going to the dentist when we include this type of assistance in the medical insurance can reach 40%. Many times we let time go by to perform the treatments we need because of their high cost, which ends up aggravating the problem. Being able to access dental coverage at reasonable prices guarantees us good oral health.</span></p></div></div></div></div>
