Aircrew v BUPA

Many years ago whilst in flying training; ok then decades! .....we were indoctrinated in such bollo as only AvMed trained doctors and dentists can treat RAF Aircrew. In the subsequent years I am fairly certain that I have visited many a locum who does not even know where CAM Henlow is, never mind be AvMed trained. Now I am considering subscribing to BUPA, and wonder if there is any substance in line one above.

Has anyone got the party line on BUPA treating military aircrew these days?. FWIW I am fed up of giving the RAF a weeks notice if I need to see a doctor. With only a few years left to do, my family and I need to get into private dental and medical practices, as the NHS sucks.
