TPT; exemption; wastewater; pipes
HB 2082 amends Arizona's retail tax code to add a new exemption for tangible personal property sold to qualifying hospitals or healthcare organizations. Specifically, it exempts property sold to these entities when used solely for providing health, medical, educational, or charitable services. This change expands existing tax exemptions listed under Arizona Revised Statutes § 42-5061, directly affecting healthcare providers that meet the statutory definition in § 42-5001. The bill does not address wastewater pipes or infrastructure, as its focus is solely on broadening tax exemptions for healthcare-related purchases.
