Medical centres operator Primary Health Care could be in line for a $190 million windfall from the tax office.

Primary says the deputy commissioner of taxation has found the company is owed an $18 million refund in relation to payments for medical and healthcare practices in 2010.

Primary expects it will receive a similar cash refund of about $130 million for the financial years between 2010 and 2014.

The company could also be eligible for more refunds dating back as far as fiscal 2003, which means it could stand to receive about $190 million in total.
