Our view of the service
BPAS Healthcare was operated by the British Pregnancy Advisory Service (BPAS).
The service provided termination of pregnancy as a single speciality service. The service was based in Leamington Spa but was commissioned to provide a service to women across the country.
BPAS Healthcare offered a remote/digital early medical abortion service. The service was available for women who wanted to manage their termination of pregnancy at home and had a pregnancy of less than 10 weeks gestation. As part of the care pathway, women were offered sexual health screening and contraception advice.
From March 2024 to March 2025, the service completed 23,280 assessments for abortion treatment. The service treated 13,139 women for an early medical abortion by telemedicine (remote consultation and supply of abortifacient medicines to take at home). Of these, 155 were early medical abortions for clients under 18 years of age.
This was the first time we inspected this service.
A team of 1 CQC inspector, and 1 specialist advisor visited the service on 30 March 2025. We spoke with 9 staff (including midwives, nurses, managers, and administrative staff). We looked at 10 sets of patients notes and listened to 3 calls to clients made by staff. We attended 2 staff meetings.
