We are part of the Bupa group
GRI 2-1, 2-2
Sanitas is the Bupa group company that operates in Spain. It also heads the group’s business in Europe and Latin America (ELA). From Spain, we lead the business that operates in Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Guatemala, Peru, Ecuador, Mexico, Miami, Panama, Poland, Dominican Republic, and Turkey.
In 2022, we further consolidated humanised medicine, but would not have been able to do so without the support of our customers. It is because of them that we were able to restore occupancy in care homes to pre-pandemic levels and strengthened the dental business by opening new clinics. Sanitas Seguros also expanded its customer base, with growth outpacing the rest of the market.

BluaU
One step forward in digital medicine. In addition to the digital consultation area, we have incorporated a wider range of innovations such as diagnostics and monitoring.

We monitor our customers’ data through their devices or apps to measure their physical activity, heart rate, sleep patterns, and offer it all to them automatically in the MiSanitas app.
Always connected
We continue to provide customers with the diagnostic test appointment service in the MiSanitas app, sending SMS to facilitate self-booking of appointments and customer service channels via Chatbot. In addition, new features have been incorporated to facilitate the management and health care of our customers.
Monitoriza tu Salud
Through the Monitoriza tu salud service, we convert the data collected from the various customer devices (blood pressure monitors, smartphones, activity bracelets, smart watches, etc.) into information and proposals for personalised health habits for our customers under the supervision of a team of professionals: doctors, psychologists, nutritionists, and personal trainers. All the health data collected by the devices can be accessed from MiSanitas app.
Sanitas Hospitales
After years of tremendous difficulties resulting from the pandemic and its effects, Sanitas hospitals and outpatient clinics are better prepared than ever. We were able to rise to the occasion, adapting quickly to the needs of the moment, and we continue to work to offer the best service to our patients. Our hospitals combine using state-of-the-art innovations and technologies in the field of healthcare with personal, friendly care.
At Sanitas, we are developing the hospital of the future: the digital hospital. To achieve this, we combine the best physical healthcare services, with the most cutting-edge facilities and technologies in our centres, with developing digital solutions that bring hospital services to our patients' homes. The idea is to always be there for those who need us whenever they need us.

Our services
Care homes
Our care homes are equipped for long-term and short-term care. In addition to healthcare, we endeavour to support the elderly in their leisure and free time activities, foster their mental and social skills and help prevent feelings of loneliness.
All our care homes are certified according to UNE ISO 9001:2015 quality management standards, which were renewed in 2022.
Day centres
Designed for elderly people who, while continuing to live at home, are looking for a qualified care space during the day. Their stay at the centre not only helps them not to be alone, but also to improve their physical and mental abilities through the various activities we offer at these centres.
Rehabilitation and recovery
We also offer personalised programmes for seniors in need of special care with services such as post-operative and post-oncology treatments, functional rehabilitation and stroke rehabilitation.
Assisted living flats
At Sanitas, we offer the same quality of services and care from our centres to seniors who require it for a specific period of time, either to recover from an ailment or operation, or even for a holiday stay.
New services for seniors

Return to pre-pandemic occupancy levels
After several difficult years due to the pandemic, where the elderly were one of the most negatively impacted groups, our senior living centres have now returned to pre-pandemic occupancy levels. This represents an acknowledgement of the service provided at our centres and the trust that our seniors and their families place in us to care for them in the twilight years of their lives.
