Private Health Insurance
Do you have private health insurance which covers chiropractic, sitting there, unused, while you’re putting up with back pain or spinal problems?
Our clinic is covered by the major private health insurers in the UK. This includes BUPA, AXA PPP, Vitality, Aviva and Simply Health.
Getting referred is easy. To use your private health insurance you will have to contact your local GP and, most of the time, simply your GP knowing that you have a problem is enough to get the process started with your insurance company. Most companies require you to get a case number before you can begin and it’s worth checking the exact cover you have (how many visits you’re covered for and/or the financial limits of your policy).
BUPA (UK)
Around half of our practitioners are covered by BUPA Health insurers. Their standard protocol is that you get a referral from your GP, obtain an authorisation code from BUPA and normally this will provide around five initial sessions which will be billed directly to them.
Our BUPA registered chiropractors are:
Craig McLean – BUPA 30020809
George Ross – BUPA 30037968
Conor Ward - BUPA 30014025
AXA PPP
We are covered by AXA PPP - our clinic code is ZZ03992.
To start your cover apply for an authorisation code from AXA PPP, they normally provide 10 – 12 sessions as standard and you may need a GP referral or at least one involved in the process. AXA PPP insist we bill them directly.
Vitality & all other UK insurers
Depending on your policy and whether it offers a level of cover for chiropractic, you will be able to apply for an authorisation code from your insurer. Like AXA PPP, you would pay for treatments at the time of the appointments and be reimbursed by your insurer at a later date.
