Iowa Admin. Code r. 701-17.34
As of July 1, 1999, gross receipts from the sale or rental of tangible personal property to or the performance of services for any freestanding nonprofit hospice facility which operates a hospice program are exempt from tax if the property or service is purchased for use in the hospice's program. A "hospice program" is any program operated by a public agency, a private organization, or a subdivision of either, which is primarily engaged in providing care to terminally ill individuals. A "freestanding hospice facility" is any hospice program housed in a building which is dedicated only to the hospice program and which is not attached to any other building or complex of buildings. An individual is "terminally ill" if that individual has a medical prognosis that the individual's life expectancy is six months or less if the illness runs its normal course.
This rule is intended to implement Iowa Code section 422.45 as amended by 1999 Iowa Acts, chapter 62.
