    Yes, COVID-19 test fees are considered eligible to deduct as a medical expense by the Canadian Revenue Agency. Laboratory procedures or services including necessary interpretations – prescription needed. COVID-19 tests, such as those for travel, would still need a prescription, even if they are mandatory.
