Alone in its leadership, held for ten years, the Catalonian professional medical associations have chosen Assistència Sanitària as the best insurance provider, company or mutual healthcare organisation. The 2025 edition of the survey by professionals from private medicine of the Catalonian Board of Professional Medical Associations (CCMC in Spanish) confirms, once again, the situation of a sector that evolves rapidly and that is facing up to important structural challenges. Amongst the most relevant results once again the valuation made by the professionals of the insurance providers stands out, a sensitive indicator that shows considerable differences between the different companies.

Under this heading, Assistència Sanitària once again holds the first position, maintaining a continued leadership that has now been awarded for ten years running. The result underscores the confidence of the doctors in the relation model offered by the organisation.

 

An extensive survey

The survey, based on replies by 1,271 doctors who work privately in Catalonia, shows a panorama in which the professionals particularly value the independence, flexibility and the possibility of conciliation that private practice offers, but they also report unfair retributions.

In this context, the ranking of organisations takes on a special relevance. According to the CCMC, only two of the sixteen analysed reached a good score. Assistència Sanitària, which heads the table with 7.48 and holds the first position obtained in all the editions of the survey, is consolidated as the organisation best valued by the doctors. 

The professionals highlight aspects such as the management of the requests, the clarity of the information and the perception of a close, coherent contact with the clinical practice. All of this, according to the CCMC, contributes to better care and an environment of confidence in a sector where this element is essential.

The survey also reflects deep structural changes in private medicine, with an increase in female presence, the reduction of the own consulting rooms and a growing concentration of the activity in centres linked to hospital or insurance groups. Against this backdrop, the professionals are asking for improvements in retributions, technology, training and transparency, as well as more fluid relationship with the organisations and the review of the low-cost policies. 

In this context of transformation, Assistència Sanitària’s continuance at the top of the ranking takes on a prominent value, as the doctors perceive it as a benchmark for stability and coherence in line with quality care.
