The Association of Medical Insurers and Intermediaries (AMII) is the latest industry body to back tax breaks for private medical insurance (PMI) ahead of tomorrow’s Budget.
AMII executive chairman Dave Middleton (pictured) told Health & Protection that as a member of the Confederation of British Industry (CBI), it backed the body’s call for such tax breaks along with AMII members Aviva, Bupa and Axa.
The British Insurance Brokers Association (BIBA) issued a similar plea in late January.
“With the unprecedented demands on the NHS, the private sector can help provide a solution,” Middleton said.
“The government has the chance in the budget to take positive steps to encourage growth in the PMI market.”
