BUPA hospitals chooses new name to in-spire

BUPA Hospitals have today unveiled the name which they will use when they become independent from the BUPA Group.

Over the next few months, Spire Healthcare will become the new name for the 25 former BUPA Hospitals and take its place as one of the leading independent sector health providers.

The rebranding process will start following the completion of the sale of the BUPA Hospitals business to Cinven and will be backed by a publicity and awareness-building campaign.

Managing Director, Clare Hollingsworth said: “We think this is a name to inspire us all in our determination to remain the best independent provider of quality healthcare.

“Our name may change - but our commitment to deliver the highest standards of clinical care and excellent patient service will stay the same.”

Customers of all the major UK insurers – including BUPA health insurance – will still have access to treatment at the new Spire Healthcare’s hospitals.
