'''Social Security Number:'''  it’s a number you get when you work in Spain and which gives you access to our Public Health System. You have one already, it’s on your contract. You’ll need a certificate with this number to ask for a medical card. Contact Marta Moya at Human Resources-People unit (mmoya@iciq.es) if you need a certificate.

'''Medical card:''' you need your NIE card, your Social Security number certificate (ICIQ gives you one, but at the health centre you may be told that it isn't the one they want, in that case you have to go to Av. Roma 7 to ask for the certificate[http://maps.google.es/maps?hl=ca&ie=UTF8&q=INSS&near=Tarragona&fb=1&ll=41.118794,1.243311&spn=0.021629,0.040169&z=15&iwloc=A]) and your "empadronamiento" certificate. You have to ask for this card to thus be able to go to the doctor (EU citizens can see a doctor anyway, but the card makes things easier and you’re appointed a doctor) and get medicines at the chemist's. You ask for the card at the health centre (CAP) that's nearest to your flat. You can check your address and find CAPs here: http://www10.gencat.net/pls/catsalut/cawpk500.inici

'''La Meva Salut:''' Once you have your card, you have to register on a platform called “La Meva Salut” (= My Health): https://catsalut.gencat.cat/ca/serveis-sanitaris/la-meva-salut/index.html#googtrans(ca|en)

''Registration'': https://lamevasalut.gencat.cat/web/cps/registra-t?queueittoken=e_lmsr~q_c67b620b-dcb1-408d-8704-957c11c08105~ts_1706881584~ce_true~rt_safetynet~h_f9a874ce02068fe05217ef4b96a844e5ec4be0df1004de9172deeacf972beadc
 
There you’ll be able to ask for appointments to see a doctor or a nurse. In many CAPs (health centres) you can’t do anything in person since December 2023. On this platform, you’ll be able to read doctor reports, blood test results, check whether you’re on a waiting list to see a specialist etc.
