In economic crisis, the main victims of the measures intended to combat the abuse that some foreign nationals make the Spanish public health may be the most vulnerable immigrants. Health Minister Ana Mato, has announced that it is sufficient to be registered to obtain a health card, but the tax residency is required. This means that people who are illegally staying only have access to the emergency, maternity and child care, basic care is guaranteed to anyone.
The Government shall amend the Aliens Act to implement new restrictions. "The standard will not suffice," said Mato, who explained that to provide health card shall be ensured that those who request it "real" live and "work like us and pay their taxes." That is, they have legal residence in Spain. Mato justified this change on the grounds of abuse of those who bring their families to receive medical treatment only. The result of these changes is that those who are illegally staying only have access to the emergency, maternity and child care, basic care is guaranteed to anyone.
The population of foreign residents in Spain is 5,711,040 people, according to the National Institute of Statistics, and the number of legal aliens amounts to 5,251,094, according to the Ministry of Employment, bringing the number of citizens 'paperless' likely to be affected by these changes would be around half a million people, in the absence of any duplication in the debug register that support the experts.
Government sources stated that only recognize the right of access to health insurance card to those foreigners with "legal residence" in Spain, which involves having a valid residence permit, and their immediate families also regularized. Is deciding how to address the situation of thousands of illegal residents who already have health insurance card in Spain.

Health's announcement represents a radical departure from the policy implemented in 2000, in full flood under a government immigration and also the PP-then headed by José María Aznar, the Immigration Act opened the door to legal migrants irregular health card with the only requirement that they were registered. The law, last reformed in 2000, established at this time that foreigners in Spain are registered in the register of the municipality in which they reside "are entitled to healthcare under the same conditions of the Spanish." Those who have neither the register are entitled to emergency, maternity and child care.
Until 2000 only recognized the right to free health care and without red tape for foreigners in emergency care, either by accident or severe illness until the patient receives discharge. Alongside this, considered as a humanitarian aid, assistance also tended to pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum, and care for children.
In reviewing access to healthcare for undocumented immigrants, Mato aims to save 500 million euros. The minister also announced that his department will take further initiatives to combat the so-called medical tourism. In this regard, she announced the intention to review various international conventions, he said, have not proven effective. Also, he explained, require reciprocity to countries so that in Spain only provide care that the Spanish can receive within their borders. With that and more control of the care received by foreign residents, is expected to save another 971 million, said the minister.
Mato detailed a wide range of measures that the department aims to cut € 7,000 million in health spending. These include, in addition to combat health tourism, the creation of a central pharmaceutical purchasing, transferring chronic patients from hospitals to nursing homes or fringe benefits adjustments.
