Questione giuridica chiave
Whether premiums surcharges under Art. 88 UVG constitute taxable consideration for BFU services
Decisione estratta
Yes. The insurers acquired BFU services in a reciprocal exchange; the contributions were consideration, not subsidies.
Motivazione estratta
BFU acted under the insurers’ statutory prevention mandate and was financed by earmarked premium surcharges paid in return for specific prevention, education and coordination services. The payments were linked to BFU’s performance and reduced the insurers’ own statutory burden.
