A new two-year deal to deliver care to Bupa’s customers in the UK includes diagnostics, endoscopy, MRI and CT services at Mayo Clinic’s Portland Place facility

Mayo Clinic Healthcare also provides a secondary clinical review for Bupa customers who may benefit from pioneering CAR-T cell therapy. The complex breakthrough treatment uses patients’ own immune system cells to treat a small number of advanced cancers. Mayo Clinic Healthcare’s expert review will offer Bupa customers extra peace of mind.

"The relationship with Bupa is an important part of the evolution and growth of Mayo Clinic Healthcare," says G. Anton Decker, MBBCh, a gastroenterologist and president of Mayo Clinic International. "We are privileged to partner with Bupa and it affirms our commitment to care for patients in comprehensive and collaborative ways."

Mayo Clinic Healthcare in London provides in-person and virtual care tailored to patients' needs. It offers comprehensive health assessments, second opinions for complex diagnoses and state-of-the-art diagnostic tests. It recently added on-site services in cardiology, gastroenterology and pulmonary medicine. Preventive screenings and personalised wellness plans are also offered.

Alex Perry, CEO of Bupa Insurance said: “Mayo Clinic Healthcare’s reputation speaks for itself, so its new London clinic is a great addition to the portfolio of hospitals and clinics where our customers can receive treatment and care. It shares our customer focus and commitment to delivering the best outcomes for them.”
