The partnership provides Bupa members with access to Ascenti’s network of directly-employed physiotherapists. Bupa members, including corporate customers, are now able to book face-to-face appointments at more than 300 clinics nationwide.
Ascenti physiotherapists are also supporting the delivery of PhysioLine, Bupa’s telephone triage service that directs members to the best course of treatment.
Kevin Doyle, Chief Commercial Officer at Ascenti said: “We are delighted to partner with Bupa and provide their members with rapid access to high-quality musculoskeletal care. This is a hugely exciting partnership for Ascenti, and it's a privilege to work with a pioneering healthcare organisation like Bupa, which shares our values and commitment to improving the quality of customers’ lives.
“We look forward to developing this relationship and collaborating with Bupa on a long-term strategy that will further enhance the customer journey through digital innovation and the introduction of specialist services.”
Ian Southerland, Operations Director at Bupa Health Clinics said: “Over the last few years, we’ve seen demand grow for our physiotherapy services. Whether this is aches and pains from increased working from home, injuries from taking up new exercises or to help with niggling issues, people are looking for more places to get support.
“We’re very pleased to launch our partnership with Ascenti which will give our customers greater flexibility and choice of where they can access treatment.”
