Bupa is the UK's largest private health insurer and one of the most widely held employer-provided health benefits. Many patients attending Lambert Sports Clinic from Kingston, Surbiton, and New Malden receive Bupa as a workplace benefit and are often unaware they can use it without a GP referral.
As a CQC-registered clinic (Registration: 1-13774886305), Lambert Sports Clinic meets the clinical governance standards required by Bupa and all major private health insurers. Our HCPC-registered physiotherapists are trained to the highest professional standard and maintain annual CPD requirements. We provide clinical notes and outcome measures in the format required by Bupa for audit purposes.
Lambert Sports Clinic has been treating Bupa members for musculoskeletal and sports injuries across the KT postcode area for years. Our clinical record-keeping meets Bupa's audit standards, and we submit invoices electronically, making the claims process straightforward for both patients and the insurer.
Bupa operates an open referral model for most musculoskeletal conditions, meaning you do not need a GP letter or specialist referral before accessing physiotherapy. You can contact Bupa directly on 0345 609 0111, or log in to my.bupa.co.uk, to register your claim and receive a pre-authorisation number. Once you have this, you can book directly with Lambert Sports Clinic.
Most Bupa health plans provide a minimum of 10 physiotherapy sessions per condition per policy year. Some comprehensive plans offer higher limits. Check your Bupa benefit summary at my.bupa.co.uk for your specific allowance.
Log into my.bupa.co.uk or call Bupa on 0345 609 0111 to confirm your physiotherapy benefit, annual session allowance, and any policy excess that applies. Having this information ready speeds up the pre-authorisation call in step 2.
Call Bupa on 0345 609 0111 with your membership number and a brief description of your condition. Bupa will verify your eligibility and issue a pre-authorisation number (sometimes called a claims reference). Note this down — you will need it in step 3. This call typically takes 5–10 minutes.
Call our reception on 020 8133 5694 or book online at the link above. Let us know you are a Bupa member and provide your pre-authorisation reference.

At your first appointment, bring your Bupa membership card and your pre-authorisation reference. After treatment, you pay only your policy excess (if applicable).
