Hello Dave,
There are several private health insurance companies working in Portugal, with diferent options, depending on what you want.
Multicare, Medis, Advancecare are some of the most popular. They work in almost every private clinic/ hospitals from north to south of the country.
It will all depend on your age, family needs and of course your budget.
They all have websites but im not sure if they have the information in english.
If you need any help, feel free to ask and i will be happy to help you.
Ana
Hi Ana
thanks for your reply.
if you have some web addresses that would be great.
kind regards
Dave
@anavieira I have received quotes from Multicare and Allianz, and am waiting for a quote from my bank (Abanca). Right now Allianz is the most affordable at about 200Euros/Month for each of us. We are both 66. My banker suggested Allianz was not a "good" plan. Though right now they are the best deal by 100Euros/month. Any thoughts?
@ncw it will all depend on the capital and covers you have, your health needs and pre-existing conditions.
my only advice is if you need help in the future regarding your policy, refunds or any problems, bank employees are not specialized in insurance. You should go with an insurance broker.
if you need, I can help you with that, and present you quotes.
just let me know 🙂
stay safe!

@anavieira I have a quote from Allianz and Multicare 60+. If there are other options for 66/67 year olds, please contact me. 911 084 355
Hi @anavieira, I would like an insurance broker to get in touch too,we are a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 kids).Cheers.
@anavieira Hello, Ana. Can you please send me contact information for an insurance broker. I'm trying to figure out which provider can offer me the best plan for my needs. Any information you can provide is greatly appreciated. Obrigada, Yvette.
@yha Hello,
Just saw your message. If you still need some assistance, please send me a direct message.
🙂
Ana
@anavieira Thanks for getting back to me. I still need some assistance. I tried to connect with you but if I wasn't successful please feel free to send me a direct message. Thanks!
@anavieira Hi Ana, We watched your interview with Amon and Christina of Our Rich Journey last night. Thank you for providing that and for helping this community sort out how best to meet our medical needs.
One statement concerned me though about acquiring private insurance for people 65 and older. If you have a broker that could help us with that, would you please provide their information via a private message? We'll definitely include them in our quotes comparison.
Best wishes, KK
@anavieira Hello Ana, you are so helpful with this topic of insurance! We too are a couple with plans to move to PT in the Spring. We are 69 & 74 yrs old. We will need to find a helpful broker to assist us with quotes and policy applications. Could you please send me a reference too. Obrigada! Allison
@jgibson The YouTube Channel Our Rich Journey are a US couple who moved to Portugal 2 years ago. They are a great source of information and have published a class on Moving to Portugal. The interview with (as it turns out) a different Dr. Ana Viera is at the very end of the course. I believe the cost of the course is $300.
@anavieira Hi Ana Would you be able to advise brokers please for health insurance. Many thanks
@ncw which plan did you choose? We got a quote from Medal which is associated with Allianz, and there were 4 options.
@ncw hello Ana,
How can I talk directly to you, do you have a whats-ap number I can call?
Thank you so much, as health insurance is the most important part for me.

@anavieira Hello Ana,
Can a couple of 73 years old get private insurance if one person has a preexistent condition : Liver transplant four ears ago and takes anti-rejection medication? Is it possible and how much approximately it would be?
Really appreciate you advise. You can contact me at: mpogorel@gmail.com or by Whatsup at 267-825-4997.
Best regars,

Yes, it is possible to have private insurance with that profile. 🙂

@anavieira Hi Ana, we are moving to Lisbon in September. We are in Portugal now and will be returning to US soon to apply for D7 Visa. We know we’ll need Travel Insurance. Do you have any advice on obtaining that? Also, we’ll need private health care. We are in our 70s. Do you have any advice for that process? Thanks so much!

Hello,
Just started researching this subject. When we move next year we'll be 64 & 55 and we're looking for some brokers that we can contact for some quotes and coverage options. If anyone has some to share it'd be most appreciated.
Best,
Stephen
@spkaiser Hi! We've been talking with Nuno Mendes at WINsurance (Expats Portugal Partner) and Ana Viera on this thread with good results for both. There are great options available. Best of luck, KK

Hi there! I'm new here, and will be moving to south Portugal for my maternity leave with baby twins in a couple weeks time - I'd like any advice regarding local private health care for a family of 4 please. I've read through the posts and the only online insurer that has an English version is Liberty Seguros.
Are they any good or are there better recommendations?
Thanks in advance! Emma
@anavieira would love to hear from you too if you can help!

At the regular clinic were unbelievable queues and they didn't help me... I noticed that at some point I started to stop breathing while sleeping. Apart from that I couldn`t sleep half the night for a long time, so I decided to visit https://www.cameronmch.com/services/respiratory-therapy/ my daughter recommended me this clinic.
