Testimonials
VAT? Why do we charge our patients?
The simple answer is that whilst each member’s eStore has its own branding and is used only by our member the whole platform that enables it, is run by Physio First i.e. the connectivity between our member’s eStore, your patient, the vendors and the payment interfaces means that technically Physio First is the vendor and therefore Vat has to be charged and repaid to HMRC.
Currently HMRC case law has concluded that we would need to charge VAT as the item, although recommended by the health professional, is being sold by Physio First and because the public could access our eStores and purchase items directly.
That said, Physio First is working with our platform partners to seek a response from HMRC to see if it is possible to pass on the zero rating that comes with products supplied by registered healthcare professionals but this process will take time.
