In Hong Kong, Bupa secured two new major government contracts and continued to open clinics and develop what it calls a connected care model, intended to link in-person clinical services with digital channels. Outside its core insurance and clinical activities, Bupa acquired 250 hectares of land at Mt Eccles in Australia to establish a nature regeneration and decarbonisation project under its Better World strategy. Looking to future activity, Stone said: “Bupa will continue to make investments and grow the footprint of our medical centres, mental health, dental, and optical clinics. Our clinics are open to all, both Bupa customers and non-Bupa customers, to make healthcare more accessible for more people in our community. Combining our physical care presence with digital tools like Blua means more Australians can now access primary, preventative, mental health, and urgent care when they need it, including out of hours, wherever they live.”
