Making the most of your Bupa health insurance

That's what i call a busy week! I'm glad it's the weekend. It started on monday at five in the morning and my youngest Ryan woke up in a fever with a rash. Luckily we're with Bupa, so we gave the anytime healthline a call. The nurse who we spoke to was really friendly and reassured us that rest and plenty of liquids was all he needed.

No going back to sleep for me though. I've recently take more interest in my health and got some great advice, not to mention a decent discount at our local gym through Bupa. I started going every other day before work. Tuesday started well, I.

Checked My Bupa and found that my recent claim had been fully paid. It's really useful to help me manage my membership directly from my phone, man on the move and all that. The following day I went over to mum and dad's for dinner. Dad's been having back problems for a while which is difficult as he owns a small business.

However as he got Bupa health insurance for his business and employees, I suggested to give them a call. They were great, he spoke to a physiotherapist who provided him with some easy exercises. It's useful for people like dad, having direct access to specialists over the phone, rather than having to go to the GP. Thursday I took half a day off as the kids were on half term.

We did a bit of shopping and out for a meal with a good discount from Bupa, I suppose that means I'll have to get back to the gym tomorrow after all I've got to get a beach body before our trip to Florida next year. Can't wait! Today I had a meeting in town so I booked in for health assessment. Why not, I'm not getting any younger. I had a good chat with the doctor and he gave me some really useful advice on ways to stay healthy.

Yep, it's a busy life, who knows what tomorrow will bring..
