Find a Bupa-friendly doctor near you
International customers can book an online appointment via Blua.
In a brand new country, it can be hard to find things like the train station – or free wi-fi. When you need to find a doctor – we’re here to help!
With your Bupa OSHC membership you can see any doctor that practises general medicine, also known as a General Practitioner (or GP).
A Bupa Friendly doctor is a GP that agrees to submit your claim directly to Bupa. This helps to reduce or eliminate any payment you would normally need to make on the day of your appointment.

In some cases, there will be nothing for you to pay if you visit a Bupa-friendly doctor. Some doctors may charge more than the benefit you're entitled to under your cover and you will incur an out-of-pocket fee (or gap fee). You will need to pay this gap fee yourself.
It is a good idea to check with your doctor's receptionist when you make your appointment, to see if there will be a cost.
