Our sustainability strategy is focused on building a healthy future for both people and planet.
We’re committed to being a net zero business by 2040, with our efforts underpinned and validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).
Our health plans support individuals, families and businesses who are looking for the highest level of cover available from Bupa.
We provide our customers with premium international coverage with a range of exceptional products and services, giving them direct access to world-leading specialists and medical providers, at home or abroad.
Our founders were medical professionals. Their focus on quality care and service still drives all that we do today.
Bupa continues to remain free of shareholders, re-investing profits back into our healthcare services around the world. This means our focus is on the needs and care of our customers and it fuels our drive to improve our services and offering access to cutting-edge care.
With over 70 years of medical expertise, we’re dedicated to helping you live longer, healthier, happier lives and making a better world.
Your partner in health
Better health is at the heart of everything we do.
Our plans are designed to be used, so claiming will not increase individual premiums; and pre-existing conditions could be covered, subject to underwriting.
We also offer a range of preventive healthcare benefits, looking after the mind as well as the body and offering support with chronic conditions such as asthma or diabetes - helping you to stay at your best, as well as supporting you during the times when you need us the most.
Richness of cover
With Bupa Global your health plan travels with you, providing you with the same level of cover whether at home or abroad. If the treatment you need isn't available where you are, we can evacuate you to a hospital where you can receive the treatment you need.
Our plans provide a truly private health journey with direct access to any recognised private provider, clinic or hospital in the world without having to wait for a GP referral, including in-hospital cover for private rooms at renowned facilities such as London’s Harley Street and Cromwell Hospital.
Here when you need us
Our health insurance products come with a range of inclusive benefits and services, including:
Reassurance from trusted specialists
When you’re facing unexpected health challenges, you want to know that every option has been explored before making any big decisions on your care pathway. That’s why we’ll connect you with independent medical experts to provide a second medical opinion, giving you extra reassurance when you need it most.
Speak to a doctor, anytime, anywhere
We know how important it is to get the healthcare you need, when you need it. In addition to the extensive network of doctors and facilities available on your health plan, Global Virtual Care provides you with unlimited virtual appointments with a doctor, available in multiple languages at any time of the day or night.
24-hour medical help
We have a team of advisers, doctors and nurses based around the world, helping us provide a multilingual service 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Our specialised teams enable easy access to medical professionals, approval of treatment, health advice and evacuation services.
Mental health support
We believe that your mental health and wellbeing is just as important as your physical health. To support this, both annual and monetary limits across our plans for in-patient and day-patient mental health treatment are the same as for physical health treatment, with no waiting periods or lifetime limits, subject to the overall limit of the plan*.
Making a positive impact
Along with our colleagues, clients and customers, Bupa is on a journey to help make a better world. We’re committed to doing all we can, environmentally and in our communities, to make a positive difference. Whether the impact is felt thousands of miles away or on our own doorstep, we’ll never stop working towards a healthier future for all.
