Bupa has agreed a strategic partnership with Ascenti to offer face-to-face physiotherapy appointments across the UK.
Bupa customers including business clients will be offered access to Ascenti’s network of physiotherapists at more than 300 clinics nationwide as well as having the flexibility to speak to a physiotherapist through Bupa’s Physioline.
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.”
Kevin Doyle, chief commercial officer at Ascenti, added it was a hugely exciting partnership for the firm.
“We are delighted to partner with Bupa and provide their members with rapid access to high-quality musculoskeletal care,” he said.
“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.”
