[Rule 5(2) of Service Tax (Determination of Value) Rules,2006)]
(F) Clarifications issued by the Board/Ministry:
Health Service – (1) With the change in the style of functioning of the business
organizations, health check-up is a routine facility provided by the employers to their
employees. The main purpose is to ensure that the productivity of the organization is
not adversely affected due to ill health of its employees. Such activities, commonly
known as corporate health check-up schemes, are undertaken by designated hospitals
in order to detect any medical indicator or to ensure timely diagnosis of any disease so
that prophylactic measures can be taken. In such cases, the hospital providing these
services charge the employer i.e. the business organization and it constitutes
expenditure for the latter. In certain cases (for example, in case of flight crew) pre-flight
check-ups are conducted not only to test the fitness levels but also to rule out the
possibility f the flying crew being under intoxication. Such health check-up schemes are
being brought within the ambit of service tax under the new service.
(2) A large number of health insurance schemes are being offered by the insurance
companies under which charges for hospitalization, surgery, post-surgical nursing etc.
are generally paid by the insurance company. Such insurance policies, which fall under
the category of general insurance service, are already taxable. Under general
insurance service, an insurance company is a service provider to its clients. Under the
proposed new service, tax is also being imposed on the medical charges paid by the
insurance companies to the hospitals on behalf of a business entity for its employees.
As such, the insurance company would be the service receiver and the tax paid by the
hospital would be available to the insurance companies as credit.
(3) The tax on the above mentioned health service would be payable only of and to
the extent the payment of such medical check-up or treatment etc. is made directly by
the business entity or the insurance company to the hospital or medical establishment.
Any additional amount paid by the individual (i.e. the employee or the insured, as the
case may be) to the hospital would not be subjected to service tax. This is to ensure
that an individual is not required to pay a tax for which he cannot take credit.
