• Partnership argues fee is separate from emergency dental care and not subject to VAT
• Tax authority argues fee is integral to emergency dental care service
• Court holds fee is a separate service not subject to VAT
• Court determines fee is not a service provided by colleagues but a separate service provided by the partnership to partner practices
