Travelling to Atos medical via taxi

Hello all, I have a medical to attend later next month with ATOS:mad:.They are still deciding whether a home visit is necessary or not yet ,wish they would hurry up and make up their minds.Anyhow they have already said that if I cant have a medical at home that they have agreed that I can travel by taxi.My question is as I cannot find an answer is , will Atos arrange and pay for the taxi in advance or will I be responsable for doing this?, as the medical centre is a fair distance away from my home and the cost of a taxi either way will be extorcionate (sp) and certainly not in my disposable income league
Paul Walker , in my dreams;)

    You will need to pay for the taxi yourself and then put a claim in for the expense. When you get in the office someone should help you with the expenses. I went by car with my husband but the lady in the office seemed to be sorting out expenses for bus travellers.
    If you feel you need a medical at home then your doctor I think can write a letter for you!
