And private medical is BIKable

Pity that we don't have an equivalent "Marcus Rashford" figurehead to make the case for this being reversed?
BTW - If anyone wants a test, you just register on the gov.uk website, book one and they are free. I get tested every 14 days (I have a vulnerable health condition, one of which symptoms manifest as a Covid symptom).I was an IPSE Consultative Council Member, until the BoD abolished it. I am not an IPSE Member, since they have no longer have any relevance to me, as an IT Contractor.

Send a cheque to HMRC for the BIK amount, but cough over it first.Comment

Can't see this standing up to a challenge...firstly, if as a matter of occupational health an employee is required to have a regular test, then surely its a requirement of your employment and therefore not a BIK? There's already a precedent for this...employers can pay for eye tests for employees that use a display. I don't even think this will get as far as a challenge, I think the treasure will explicitly exempt it in tomorrow's statement.
Outside of this scenario, sure, I see how it's a BIK, but since when did you need to pay for a test if you have symptoms? Why would you need your employer to pay it?Comment

It's an example of typical dry British cough humour

Not completely, they are only stopping the tax for antigen tests, not antibody tests (it says in that article)."I can put any old tat in my sig, put quotes around it and attribute to someone of whom I've heard, to make it sound true."
