Partnering with four top-tier medical groups to expand healthcare choices and access in the Greater Bay Area, ensuring effortless direct billing for members

HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach Newswire - 29 May 2025 - Bupa Hong Kong is pleased to announce partnerships with four premier healthcare providers, in response to the increasing demand from Hong Kong residents for comprehensive and accessible medical care in mainland China.
The partnership allows the leading health insurance specialist to extend services across 10 cities and 69 locations throughout the Greater Bay Area.

Through partnerships with Fosun Health, Prosper Health, The GBA Healthcare Group, and Zhongshan Chen Xinghai Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine, Bupa Hong Kong customers now have access to a broad spectrum of top-tier medical services throughout Southern China. Leveraging our Guarantee of Payment system, customers can benefit from both inpatient and day procedure services without the inconvenience of pay and claim or the complexities of navigating claims process.

Aligned with Bupa Hong Kong's commitment to fulfilling the healthcare needs of our customers, these partnerships focus on major healthcare advancements including specialised cancer treatment, effective medical management and comprehensive inpatient care. Customers will benefit from access to an extensive range of specialised services, such as comprehensive cancer care, endoscopic procedures and orthopaedic surgeries.

A Commitment to Seamless Healthcare Access

By partnering with these distinguished healthcare providers, Bupa Hong Kong ensures its customers to receive a high standard of medical care. Dedicated to consistently providing quality services, Bupa Hong Kong and its four partners have selected several Tier III Class A hospitals from their extensive network. This tiered system, managed by the Chinese health administration, guarantees quality standards. This selection includes the top hospitals in Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Foshan.

"We need partners to build the future of quality, convenient and seamless healthcare for our customers. Collaboration with the top-tiered medical providers in the Greater Bay Area is more important than ever," said Yuman Chan, General Manager of the Bupa Insurance Business in Hong Kong. "This is about giving our customers more support and providing cross-border, accessible medical care options, whether they need critical healthcare or day procedures. Bupa makes it easy for customers to seamlessly navigate their healthcare journey through our own services and through our network partners."
