Whatever the mental health condition, we’ll be there
If you develop a new mental health condition during your policy, we’re here. When it comes to your wellbeing, we cover more mental health conditions than any other leading UK insurer‡. We're proud to offer a number of support options, so you can get the right help, for you.

Our cancer promise
If you have cancer symptoms that start after your policy begins, call us directly. And if appropriate, we can refer you to a consultant right away. Our full cancer cover means there are no time limits and all of your eligible costs are covered.††† As long as you have cancer cover with your policy, we’ll be with you from diagnosis to treatment. This is our promise to you.
Health insurance, or private medical insurance, gives you access to private healthcare. It covers all, or some, treatment costs for:
- conditions covered by your policy
- conditions that start after your policy begins
You pay an annual or monthly subscription for your insurance. You'll then have quick access to medical treatment.
We'll cover you for acute conditions after your policy starts. This covers disease, injury or illness that will likely respond quickly to treatment. Pre-existing conditions may not be covered.
Where we treat you may depend on the type of treatment you need and where you live. You may be treated in a private hospital, health centre or private section of an NHS hospital. This will all depend on if your treatment is eligible, is fee assured and there's a hospital within your chosen network.
Some things aren’t covered as standard in our health insurance policies. For example, most policies don't cover emergency treatment, maternity care or pre-existing conditions.
When you take out a policy, we may need to know about any pre-existing conditions or symptoms you have. This depends on the type of underwriting you choose.
There are two types of underwriting, full medical underwriting and rolling moratorium underwriting. Full medical underwriting means you’ll let us know about any pre-existing conditions or symptoms you already have. You’ll then know what you will and won’t be covered for. Rolling moratorium underwriting means you won’t give us your medical history. Instead, you’ll complete a pre-treatment form each time you need to make a claim. This is so we can confirm if the condition is new or is pre-existing.
More information about exclusions can be found in the Bupa By You Policy Guide (PDF, 0.5MB), Consumer Moratorium Underwriting Addendum (PDF, 1MB).
We offer two different types of health insurance cover to give you more choice. You can choose from either:
- Comprehensive cover - includes both private diagnosis and treatment
- Treatment and Care cover - offers private treatment following a private self-paid or NHS diagnosis
To find out which cover is best for you, you can compare health insurance.
