Good morning, consultation about social or insurance works.

Good morning, my name is Franco.
I have type 1 diabetes since my 16 years (29 currently) I live in Argentina, but for personal reasons it is highly probable that I must move to Spain to work and live.
My humble consultation is about insurance or social works, since I have honestly not being able to find information, there are some that provide you with their respective needles and reactive lance.
If so, which will surely register at the time of arriving and how long they take in that your application is approved.Thank you very much for your help.
@Francomoreno, welcome to the forum. Here in Spain health is universal.You have the right to health (endocrine consultations, insulins, reactive strips, etc.) only to be registered, that is, registered in the City Council or Mayor's Office with an address.And I don't know how long the procedures have been. Here private (mutual) insurance accepts you if you are diabetic.If there is any that accepts you is with a very high quotation and does not include diabetes things. Greetings.
Thank you very much for your collaboration.One more consultation, in case of universal health in Spain, what kind of insulin provides?The one that the State says or the one that one is already using for years as is my case.Excuse the discomfort.Thank you very much
@Francomoreno, finances the Lantus, of course.Although now the new generation, threeiba and cough are prescribed. And I think they also recipe fast insulin Fiasp.
All insulins, all laboratories approved by the US (European Union): Novorapid, Lantus, Levemir, Toujeo, Tresiba, Humalog, etc.
Health is universal for all because through taxes the Spaniards we finance it and we do not exclude anyone: legal immigrants, illegal, tourists, social excluded, etc.What I am not sure if non -quotes have subsidized medications once they are prescribed since in pharmacies they ask for the health card.
