I highly recommend Imran to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable accountant. He helped me sort out a very complicated backlog of accounts and prepared my overdue tax returns with professionalism and attention to detail. Throughout the process, he was incredibly patient, took the time to answer all of my questions, and explained everything clearly. He guided me through each step and helped rectify issues that had built up over time, making what felt like an overwhelming situation much more manageable. I'm very pleased with the service I've received and truly appreciate his support. If you need help with your accounts or taxes, I would highly recommend Imran.

I had a positive experience with Accotax. The work was completed promptly, my tax return was successfully filed, and I received a refund of overpaid tax. I found the cooperation efficient and helpful. Special thanks to Muhammad Saifullah for his assistance.

We worked with a few different accountants before finally settling with Accotax, and we’re really glad we did. Their team is great. Abdul is responsive and easy to reach whenever I have a question, which makes a big difference. They take the time to understand how our business works and what our needs are. They are very knowledgeable, and when they don’t have the answer straight away, they take the time to look into it and get back to us quickly. Anum, who looks after our account on a day-to-day basis, including reconciling invoices and preparing the annual accounts, is amazing. She is professional, efficient, and follows the processes we have put in place together. She's also very quickin getting back to us whenever needed. We’re very happy to work with her and hope to continue doing so for as long as possible. Overall, Accotax has made our accounting experience much smoother and easier. We see them as a long-term partner as our business continues to grow. I would 100% recommend them.

I have really impressed to date with all dealings with Accotax highly enough. From day one, they've made what can often be a complicated and stressful part of running a business feel straightforward and hassle-free. A special mention has to go to Anum, who has been friendly, incredibly responsive, and genuinely cares about providing the best possible service. No question is ever too much trouble, and she consistently goes above and beyond to make sure everything is dealt with efficiently. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for an accountant they can genuinely trust.

Hospitals and Hospital Organisations We Support

We support private hospitals, independent hospitals, hospital operators and hospital groups, along with the hospital businesses that sit alongside them, such as day-case facilities, diagnostic and treatment centres and specialist inpatient providers. Their accounting requirements vary considerably depending on structure, activities, income streams, staffing models, premises, equipment and the suppliers they rely on. A single-site independent hospital and a multi-site hospital group rarely need the same reporting, payroll or tax approach, which is why we look at each hospital business on its own terms rather than applying a template.

Private Hospitals & Day Surgery Units

Insurer and self-pay income reconciliation, consultant fee arrangements, statutory accounts and management reporting by department.

Care Homes & Nursing Homes

Occupancy and fee income tracking, local authority and private resident billing, agency staff cost control and CQC-ready records.

Specialist & Outpatient Clinics

VAT partial exemption on mixed medical and cosmetic work, capital allowances on theatre and imaging equipment, and payroll for clinical teams.

Multi-Site Healthcare Groups

Consolidated accounts, intercompany recharges, group VAT and site-by-site profitability reporting for expanding providers.

Accounting Services Built Around Hospitals

As Accountants for Hospitals, we handle annual accounts, bookkeeping, management accounts, payroll, budgeting and cash flow planning, financial reporting and the tax work that applies to your hospital business, including Corporation Tax where relevant and VAT support based on your specific supplies and activities. Because hospitals carry significant staff costs, medical equipment and capital expenditure, premises and facilities costs, supplier payments and professional fees, we keep those areas visible in your records and reports. Different income streams, whether from private patient fees, insurer arrangements, contracts or other service income, are tracked clearly so you can see what is actually driving margin.

Corporation Tax & Capital Allowances

Full expensing and Annual Investment Allowance claims on theatre, imaging and ward equipment, plus group relief and tax planning.

Bookkeeping & VAT Partial Exemption

Healthcare is largely VAT exempt, but cosmetic work, pharmacy sales, catering and room hire are not. We calculate partial exemption correctly.

Statutory & Management Accounts

Companies House and HMRC filings on time, plus monthly management accounts showing income and margin by department or site.

Payroll for Clinical & Agency Staff

Large-volume payroll including bank and agency shifts, unsocial hours, statutory pay and pension auto-enrolment, filed accurately every cycle.

NHS Pension & Consultant Payments

NHS Pension administration and support for consultants on Annual Allowance, plus correct treatment of self-employed consultant fees.

Key Accounting Challenges for Hospitals

Hospitals typically carry heavy fixed costs, from staffing rotas and payroll obligations to medical equipment, maintenance, premises and facilities, alongside supplier and professional services payments that fall due whether or not income is steady. Multiple income streams, capital expenditure and fluctuating activity levels make cash flow and financial reporting genuinely difficult to manage without accurate, timely records. Corporation Tax where applicable and VAT treatment, which depends on the nature of the supply, the activities involved, the organisation’s status and the specific circumstances, add further complexity that benefits from accounting support familiar with how hospital businesses actually operate.

Our Simple 3-Step Process for Hospitals

We start by understanding your hospital or hospital business, including how it is structured, how it generates income and where the financial pressure points sit.

FAQs About Accountants for Hospitals

The service is built around what a hospital business needs to stay compliant and well informed. That typically covers bookkeeping, payroll for clinical and non-clinical staff, annual accounts, management accounts, budgeting and cash flow planning, financial reporting, and tax support including Corporation Tax where it applies. VAT support is included where relevant, based on the nature of your supplies, your activities and your organisational status, since VAT treatment is not the same for every hospital or every income stream.

We support private hospitals, independent hospitals, hospital operators, hospital groups and hospital organisations, along with related hospital businesses such as day-case and diagnostic facilities. Requirements differ widely between a single-site independent hospital and a multi-site hospital group, so we look at your structure, income streams, staffing, premises and equipment before deciding how your accounts and reporting should be organised.

Pricing is based on the scope and complexity of your hospital business rather than a one-size-fits-all figure. Factors include how many sites you operate, the size and structure of your payroll, the number of income streams, your reporting requirements and the level of tax and VAT work involved. We work on fixed, transparent packages with no hidden fees, so you know what you are paying for before work begins.

Yes. The work is carried out by qualified accountants who follow UK accounting and tax rules and the professional standards that apply to the services we provide. We keep up to date with changes in tax, reporting and compliance requirements, and we are clear about what falls within our scope and what does not. If your situation needs additional specialist input, we will tell you rather than guess.

Payroll is usually one of the largest cost areas for a hospital, covering clinical staff, support staff, shift patterns, overtime and varying hours. We manage payroll processing, PAYE and National Insurance, pension obligations and the reporting that goes with them, while making sure staffing costs are recorded in a way that shows you the true cost of running each part of the hospital. That detail also feeds directly into your management accounts and budgeting work.

VAT treatment for hospitals depends on the nature of the supply, the activities involved, the organisation's status and the specific circumstances, so there is no blanket rule that applies to everything. Some supplies may be exempt while others are taxable, and mixed income streams can create partial exemption considerations. On the direct tax side, Corporation Tax may apply depending on how the hospital business is structured. We review your position and handle the calculations and filings that follow from it.

Yes. Medical equipment, refurbishment, facilities and other capital expenditure can put real pressure on cash flow, especially when payments fall due well before the income they support arrives. We help you plan for those commitments through budgeting and cash flow forecasting, and we make sure capital items and depreciation are reflected properly in your accounts and management reporting. That gives you a clearer view of affordability before you commit, rather than afterwards.

It starts with a conversation about your hospital or hospital business, what you run, how it is structured and what you need from your accounting support. We then review your current records, reporting and compliance position, highlight anything that needs attention, and set out what ongoing support would look like, including scope and pricing. If you are switching accountants, we can manage the handover with your existing adviser so the transition is straightforward.
