Bupa / Nuffield Be. Reassured health checks and the cost ?

[Deleted User]

Sadly three weeks ago my brother in law died suddenly from a cardiac arrest. He had no illness, no symptoms and literally dropped dead. The inquest said that he had advanced heart disease. This has shaken me up somewhat so I've been looking into booking a male health check either with Bupa or Nuffield on a pay as you go. I'm looking at the Bupa one at the mo, Be Reassured...as this seems to cover all bases, but there's no price. Can't find a price online. I have emailed. Anyone had one ? How much ? I feel a bit of a lifestyle and job change is going to happen too. I'm 57. ! Thanks.

Sorry to hear about brother-in-law.
Are you male or female?

Best advice is to contact your GP regarding your 5-yearly health check (particularly if you are overdue or never had one).

BUPA/Nuffield screening is probably not helpful!

GP says that because of covid nhs not doing them at the mo

We get free Bupa care at work but as an extra they do offer a "full body healthcheck" and im almost sure it includes a heart rhythm test, im sure last time i looked it was about £400

OP, have you tried to go through the online booking process ?
