Tennessee – True Object of Subscription to Health-Related Mobile App is Taxable Software Sale

Summary of Letter Ruling No. 25-8 (Tennessee Dept. of Revenue, 10/24/25):

  • True Object of Transaction: The Department determined that the subscription package’s primary purpose is the taxable sale of remotely accessed software, not a health service.
  • Role of Software: All tracking, guidance, and health improvement tools are delivered by the mobile app software, not by medical professionals or taxpayer employees.
  • Data Generation: Engagement metrics and health outcome reports for clients are generated by the software application itself, reinforcing its classification as a software-based service.
