Benefit in Kind Tax Query

My employer has payrolled a medical benefit for this tax year, rather than issued a P11D. This is for the value of £50.96 per month. I have noticed on my payslip that this £50.96 is added to my top line and included in my taxable gross value. My income tax is calculated on this higher value, then the £50.96 is dedcuted in full to give me my net payment (NI and pension also deducted to provide net). Is this correct?

Hi Matt,
Yes this is correct.
If the benefit is payrolled then it will be added to your salary and taxed at source rather than have to declare on a P11D. 
Thank you.
