Why this matters for medical clinics & diagnostic centres
Medical clinics, diagnostic labs and small hospitals in India operate under the Clinical Establishments (Registration and Regulation) Act 2010 + state-specific medical councils. FilingLab handles end-to-end clinic setup — Clinical Establishment Act registration, drug licence (Form 20-B for retail pharmacy in clinic), GST exemption clarification (healthcare services exempt), biomedical waste authorisation, NABH accreditation pathway. Healthcare services are GST-exempt but doctors' professional fees may still need invoicing structure.
