(1) The tax imposed by KRS 136.604 shall be collected by every provider engaged in business in this state from the purchaser. To the extent that the provisions of KRS Chapter 279 are inconsistent with KRS 136.600 to 136.660, KRS 136.600 to 136.660 shall control. The provider shall give the purchaser a receipt for the tax collected. The provider shall separately state the tax billed from all other charges on the receipt.
