Bupa

Bupa International has launched two new regional health insurance plans targeting people living and working in and around Africa.

Bupa should provide policyholders with "clear and accurate" information as to why they are being recommended to and against the use of certain consultants, the Competition Commission (CC) has advised.

Bupa, Aviva and AXA PPP Healthcare have welcomed the publication of the Competition Commission's investigation into the private healthcare market.

Bupa has expanded its services for older people by making a further step into the care village sector with the acquisition of Richmond Care Villages.

Bupa UK had a 124% increase on private medical insurance profits compared to the same time last year but faced a drop in customer numbers, according to its half year results.

Bupa has opened a ‘multi-million pound' health centre in the City of London, specialising in musculoskeletal conditions, cardiology, diagnostic tests and dermatology.

The Association of Medical Insurance Intermediaries (AMII) has officially confirmed Bupa as a corporate member with other major providers soon to join the trade body.

Bupa has opened two new dental centres in Yorkshire as part of its plan to become one of the country's leading dental providers.

The Bupa Dental Health Plan has now been rolled out to SME customers after previously only being made available to large corporates and individual policies.

Bupa has today announced plans to offer commission to intermediaries on individual private medical insurance (PMI).
