Could you please clarify re consultation fees. Can I claim the balance not covered by insurance e.g. I pay 150 but get 105 back? Can I claim the 45euros?
Thanks.
 
you can claim tax relief on the remainder, but only at the 20% level. SO in your example you can claim relief on the balance of €45, so that would amount to €9. Its not an awful lot but if you have a number of receipts it will add up.

I never realised that. Does that include GP or just consultant visits?
