HPA Saúde — Grupo HPA Saúde (private network of hospitals and clinics in the Algarve, Alentejo and Madeira)

A private network of hospitals and clinics in the south of the country and on Madeira: Alvor, Faro, Sines, Funchal, Lagos, Loulé, Odemira and other sites. Since 21 June 2026 these hospitals and clinics have carried the CUF name: the group joined the CUF network, as it announced on 9 July 2026. They are now Hospital CUF Faro, Hospital CUF Alvor, Hospital CUF Madeira, Hospital CUF Sines and so on.

Where you come across it. Private appointments, tests and round-the-clock care without waiting lists in the Algarve, Alentejo and Madeira; agreements with insurers.
While the networks are being merged, nothing changes for the Algarve, Alentejo and Madeira — you still book through the HPA website and the myHPA Saúde app; for appointments in Lisbon, the north, the centre and the Azores, the website sends you to CUF. Older articles call the network HPA Saúde — the sign now says CUF.
