We are Bupa Intermediary providing personal service at no surcharge to our clients. You pay the same premium to Bupa from us as you would from buying through Bupa directly. The difference is we are conveniently contactable in advising and tailoring Bupa plans to your needs, placing your covers, tracking and assisting in your claims and taking over the administrative chores to facilitate a pleasant Bupa membership experience.
Bupa International provides cover for many different types of companies, from major airlines to oil exploration, banks and other financial institutions, to schools and colleges around the world.
All you need is a minimum of three or more employees for your company to apply for cover. The more employees you cover the less it can cost you per employee. We want to be able to offer you a range of price options for the benefit package your company requires. Therefore you can reduce your premium by sharing the cost and asking your employees to pay an annual deductible (excess). There are four levels of annual deductible payments offered at: £100 ($200, €150), £250 ($500, €350), £500 ($1000, €750) and £1000 ($2000, €1500). This annual deductible will apply to each person insured and to all benefits.
Your employees will be responsible for settling any shortfall with the hospital, clinic or doctor.
Companies with more than 20 employees can also ask for the medical history of their employees to be disregarded. All you have to do is tell us when you apply for cover and we will let you know how much it costs.
As members of a Bupa International company plan, your employees and their families are covered when they’re on business or on holiday, abroad or at home.Each member has their own personalised membership card with essential emergency contact numbers and our multi-lingual helpline is available for them day and night throughout the year.
When an employee or family member does require medical treatment, we will do everything possible to arrange treatment in one of the comfortable, well-equipped hospitals in our network. We can usually settle claims direct with the hospital, in the local currency. This means your employees don’t have to pay upfront and there’s minimal paperwork for them to do. Of course, there is no obligation to use a Bupa International participating hospital. It’s a question of what’s right for the patient.
Each member also has access to Healthline, which is our telephone service for international medical support and expatriate advice. Medical professionals are available to take queries 24 hours a day, and they can help to refer members to local facilities. Healthline can also help with non-medical advice from visa requirements to legal referrals. |
