Does Bupa Cover Podiatrists? | Leading Health Podiatry Modbury

If you’re a Bupa member and wondering “Does Bupa cover podiatrists?”, the short answer is yes — in many cases, podiatry is covered under Bupa’s Extras cover. At Leading Health Podiatry Modbury, we are proud to be a Bupa Members First provider, which means eligible patients can access lower out-of-pocket costs and, for some services, no gap depending on their level of cover.


Is Podiatry Covered by Bupa?

Bupa generally covers podiatry services under its Extras policies, which may include:

  • General podiatry consultations
  • Foot pain and biomechanical assessments
  • Heel pain and plantar fasciitis management
  • Ingrown toenail treatment
  • Diabetic foot care
  • Custom foot orthotics (depending on cover level)

The amount you can claim back depends on:

  • Your specific Bupa Extras policy
  • Your annual limits
  • Whether you have served any waiting periods

What Does Bupa Members First Mean?

As a Bupa Members First provider, Leading Health Podiatry Modbury offers:

  • Higher rebates compared to non‑Members First clinics
  • Lower out-of-pocket costs for consultations
  • Transparent pricing with no surprises

This program is designed to make quality podiatry care more affordable for Bupa members.


Gap Free Custom Orthotics for Eligible Bupa Members

One of the biggest benefits for our Bupa patients is access to gap-free or low-gap custom orthotics, depending on your level of Extras cover.

At Leading Health Podiatry Modbury, we provide:

  • Custom foot orthotics designed specifically for your feet
  • Orthotics are prescribed for conditions such as flat feet, plantar fasciitis, heel pain, knee pain and lower limb alignment issues
  • High-quality orthotics made for everyday use, work shoes, and sports footwear

👉 Many Bupa members pay little to no out-of-pocket cost for custom orthotics, depending on their policy and remaining annual limits.


How Much Will I Pay Out of Pocket?

Your out-of-pocket cost will depend on:

  • Your Bupa Extras level (Basic, Bronze, Silver or Gold Extras)
  • Your remaining annual podiatry and orthotics limits
  • Whether waiting periods have been served

We process claims on the spot using HICAPS, so you’ll know your rebate immediately at the time of your appointment.
