Covers complex VAT in medical and welfare services

With more and more public bodies outsourcing the provision of welfare services, knowledge of the VAT implications becomes increasingly important to an ever wider circle of business enterprises and charities. Although welfare services are mainly exempt there are those which are liable to VAT either because of the nature of the service or the status of the supplier.

Similar liability issues arise with medical care and services provided by “health professionals”.

Other issues include the VAT liability of dispensing drugs, supplies to disabled persons and charities and the provision of welfare advice or information. Property issues arise with the liability of the construction of medical centres, care homes and extensions to such buildings.

There is also the question of exemptions post Brexit when European Union rules do not have to be followed.
