Why Review Your BUPA Policy?
If you’ve held your BUPA plan for over two years, it’s worthwhile to consider a complimentary review!
Bupa’s policies are free from age-related restrictions, allowing individuals to join at any age, which sets them apart from some other providers. Additionally, Bupa upgrades members under 17 to their highest tier hospital list at no extra cost.
Premiums at Bupa are subject to an increase for individuals who have consumed nicotine products in the past two years.
If your coverage does not include full outpatient services, you will have a set limit for consultations and minor diagnostic procedures—which can range from £500 to £1,000. This cap covers expenses for services like blood tests, X-rays, and ultrasounds. Since the costs for diagnostic tests can vary and potentially be significant, obtaining comprehensive coverage for these services is generally recommended.
Bupa Dental
We’ve introduced a new dental allowance for members covered by Bupa health insurance, as named on their membership certificate.
This benefit allows each member to have one dental appointment per policy year at a participating Bupa Dental Care practice. Additionally, a £300 annual benefit allowance is available for restorative dental treatments.
No excess is required, and the allowance does not affect any no-claims discounts. To use the benefit, simply book an appointment at a Bupa Dental Care practice and provide your Bupa membership details for direct billing. Any treatment costs exceeding the £300 allowance will be your responsibility.
