Bupa is "very pleased" with how its intermediary-sold individual PMI pilot phase is going after pulling its previous proposition last summer.

Bupa has added two BMI Healthcare hospitals to its recognised list for policyholders.

Dilnot proposals will ease the long-term care funding gap but it will not remove it as a record number of care homes residents are continuing to pay for their own care, Laing & Buisson has stated.

AMII members voted for insurers to join membership in an emergency general meeting today, and Bupa is set to be the first to sign.
