18 - BC Corporate Permits: What Your Health Corporation Can and Cannot Bill For

In this technical but essential episode of Health of Business, Danielle Boyd breaks down a major compliance blind spot for many BC clinic owners and incorporated health professionals: what your corporate permit can and cannot bill for. If you run a permitted health profession corporation in British Columbia (physio, chiro, RMT, naturopath, etc.), your billing and revenue streams are far more restricted than most people realize. Danielle explains why this is not a CRA issue, but a college and legislation compliance issue, and why it matters even more as BC transitions to the Health Professions and Occupations Act (HPOA) on April 1, 2026. You will learn the three common business structures most clinics operate under, why multidisciplinary billing under one entity is not currently allowed in BC, and the most common compliant workarounds, including rent models and parallel corporate structures. This episode is for clinic owners, corporate permit holders, and practitioners who want to understand who is billing for them, who they are paying, and what risks exist in the background of common clinic models. Note: Danielle shares practical interpretation of publicly available legislation and college information, but she is not a lawyer or accountant. For restructuring, legal and accounting support is still essential.
