It covers the same core disciplines as any accountancy service, applied to healthcare circumstances. In practice, that usually means bookkeeping, Self Assessment for self-employed clinicians and locums, annual accounts and Corporation Tax for practices trading through a limited company or partnership, payroll for mixed clinical and administrative teams, VAT registration and returns where relevant, management accounts, and tax planning around structure, profit extraction and pension contributions. The difference is in the detail — understanding how NHS income, private fees and clinical expenses interact on a return.
It is suitable for the whole sector. Doctors, GPs, consultants, dentists, dental associates, pharmacists, nurses, physiotherapists, psychologists, podiatrists, optometrists, care providers and clinic owners all have accounting needs that differ from general trading businesses. Because the tax treatment of healthcare income and expenses is fairly specific, having an accountant who deals with these situations regularly tends to save time and reduce the risk of errors.
You would normally need to file a Self Assessment return covering both your employed income and your locum or self-employed earnings. PAYE deducted from employment is credited against your total liability, and any additional tax is collected through the return, often via payments on account. If you operate through your own limited company, off-payroll working rules may also apply depending on who you contract with, so it is worth reviewing your arrangements rather than assuming the position stays the same year to year.
Generally, costs that are incurred wholly and exclusively for your work. Common examples include professional indemnity insurance, registration and professional body fees, clinical equipment and instruments, specialist textbooks and journals, uniforms, and travel between separate work sites. Costs with a private element, such as a home office or a car used for both work and personal journeys, are usually apportioned. Keeping clear records and receipts is what makes these claims straightforward rather than a point of debate.
Most healthcare services provided by appropriately registered professionals are exempt from VAT. The picture becomes more complex when a practice also supplies something outside that exemption, such as retail products, certain cosmetic or non-medical treatments, or dispensary sales. In those cases a partial exemption calculation may be needed, which affects how much input VAT can be recovered. Reviewing this before the year end is far easier than unpicking it afterwards.
Payroll is run to whatever schedule suits the practice, covering payslips, tax and National Insurance deductions, Real Time Information submissions to HMRC, statutory payments and pension auto-enrolment. Associate and partner arrangements that fall outside standard employment are kept separate and reflected correctly in the accounts. Having payroll and year-end accounts handled together avoids the common problem of figures not reconciling.
Yes. Cloud accounting makes day-to-day records accessible from the practice, the consulting room or home, and documents can be shared securely rather than posted. Most clients find a mix works well: digital record keeping and remote communication for routine matters, with calls or meetings scheduled when a decision needs more detailed discussion, such as a structure change or a significant purchase.
The first step is a conversation about your situation. We will ask how you are structured, where your income comes from, what filings and deadlines are already in place, and what you would like the accounting relationship to look like. From there we outline the services that fit, explain what is needed from you, and agree a schedule for accounts, returns and payroll so nothing is left to the last minute.
