How GVA Sanitat: SIP Card compares

GVA Sanitat: SIP Card refers to the Comunitat Valenciana's health card, NOT a national card: SIP is Valencia's name for the tarjeta sanitaria, while Catalonia uses the TSI (CatSalut) and Madrid uses the SERMAS card. The SIP card is issued by the regional Conselleria de Sanitat, not by the Ayuntamiento de Valencia, which keeps the municipal padron. +Salut is a separate online service that uses SIP credentials.
