You will need medical cover, which is 100% for every possible condition.
I have seen people with part payment plans being refused.
And the policy will need to be in Spanish, either the original or with a translation by an official translator i.e. one who is " LISTADO DE TODOS LOS TRADUCTORES-INTÉRPRETES JURADOS" and they charge by the word

John, would I be right in thinking this might be only for those registered as permanent residents? I'm wondering how medical cover requirements might differ between say a holidaymaker carrying an EHIC card, versus someone living there for less than 6 months per year, versus full resident?

Growler: Harriman said he was MOVING to Spain. Thus they will become resident immediately.
The length of time living in Spain is not the first criteria for being resident. If one moves to Spain (i.e. it is to be their home) they are resident immediately. If they do not move but they stay permanently for 3 months they become resident OR if they leave before the 3 months BUT return, maybe a few times each for less that 3 months, but are in Spain for more than 182 day in a year they are resident.
One can only be resident or non resident. Example: A visitor is not a resident so none of the conditions of residence are applicable to them.
