Why choose Bupa By You health insurance?
- Book digital appointments in the My Bupa App. Speak to GPs, nurses, physios and mental health specialists. Make video or audio appointments during the day and evenings, on weekends or bank holidays*
- Seek prompt advice from a GP, face to face. Access face to face GP appointments for just £20 each. If needed, tests can often be carried out on the same day at no extra cost – for example, blood tests, urine samples, ECGs, smear tests and HPV screening**
- Get the specialist advice you need, sooner rather than later. With Bupa’s Direct Access service, you can call to speak to a specialist for health issues including muscle, bone and joint worries, cancer symptoms or mental health concerns, usually without the need for a GP referral†
- Access breakthrough cancer drugs and treatment – even those not yet available on the NHS or approved by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence
- Look after your emotional wellbeing as well as your physical health. Bupa cover more mental health conditions than any other leading UK insurer‡
- Check up on your dental health. With Bupa’s dental allowance, everyone on your cover benefits from a Bupa Dental Care appointment each policy year, to use for a new patient examination, a routine check-up or an emergency appointment, plus a £300 allowance towards restorative treatment, like crowns and fillings§
