VAT on private healthcare: “not happening,” says Wes Streeting.

VAT on private healthcare: “not happening,” says Wes Streeting.

Translation: the current VAT exemption stays in place for the autumn Budget. You can stand down the calculator (for now).

What this means:
No new VAT line item on private healthcare this Budget; focus remains on getting value from cover and managing other costs like IPT.

If you haven’t reviewed your policy recently, it may be appropriate to check benefits, excesses and add-ons still suit your needs and budget.

📞 If a review could be relevant for you or your team, I’m happy to have a conversation.
