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 work with hospitals and hospital businesses of different shapes and sizes, including private hospitals, independent hospitals, hospital operators and hospital groups. Their accounting needs can vary considerably depending on how the organisation is structured, the treatments and services it provides, and the mix of income streams it relies on. Staffing, premises, medical equipment, suppliers and other operating costs all shape the numbers, which is why hospital accounting works best when it is matched to how the hospital actually operates.

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.

Our Accounting Services for Hospitals

Our work as Accountants for Hospitals covers annual accounts, bookkeeping, management accounts, payroll, budgeting, cash flow forecasting and financial reporting, along with Corporation Tax and tax support where it applies and VAT support where relevant. We look at the areas that matter most to hospitals, including staff costs, medical equipment, premises and facilities, supplier payments, professional services and the different income streams a hospital may have. The aim is straightforward: clean, accurate records, clear reporting and informed decisions about where the money is going.

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 carry significant fixed costs, from payroll for clinical and non-clinical teams to medical equipment, premises, facilities and ongoing supplier commitments, and those costs can be difficult to match against income that arrives at different times and from different sources. Capital expenditure on equipment and estate improvements, cash flow pressure, and the need for reliable financial reporting all add to the complexity. Corporation Tax and VAT considerations also need careful handling, since the correct treatment depends on the nature of the supply, the activities involved, the organisation’s status and the specific circumstances rather than any single blanket rule.

Our Simple 3-Step Process for Hospitals

We start by understanding your hospital or hospital business, how it is structured, how it operates and what matters most to you financially.

We begin by getting to know your practice and understanding your unique needs. This step ensures we have a clear picture of your operations and your goals.

FAQs About Accountants for Hospitals

Our support for hospitals typically covers bookkeeping and record keeping, payroll for clinical and non-clinical staff, annual accounts, management accounts, budgeting, cash flow forecasting and financial reporting. We also handle Corporation Tax where it applies, provide tax support and give guidance on VAT where relevant to your hospital's activities. Because hospitals have distinct cost structures, including staff, medical equipment, premises and suppliers, the exact mix is tailored to your circumstances rather than sold as a fixed bundle.

We support private hospitals, independent hospitals, hospital operators and hospital groups, along with other hospital businesses that need reliable accounting and tax support. Their requirements differ depending on how they are structured, the services they provide, their funding and income streams, and the size of their teams and premises. We do not act for NHS Trusts or other public-sector organisations, and the level of support is always built around how your particular hospital or group operates.

We work on a fixed, transparent fee basis so you know what you are paying for and why, with no hidden extras or surprise invoices. The fee reflects the scope of the work, such as the number of payroll employees, the volume of transactions, the level of reporting you need and whether VAT or Corporation Tax support is involved. We discuss this with you upfront and adjust it as your hospital grows or its requirements change.

We work to professional accounting standards and keep up to date with UK tax and reporting requirements, including Making Tax Digital obligations where they apply to your hospital. Your records are handled confidentially and securely, and we make sure filings, deadlines and compliance matters are managed properly. If you would like more detail about how we work or the standards we follow, we are happy to talk it through before you commit to anything.

Yes. Payroll is one of the largest and most complex cost areas in any hospital, covering clinical staff, administrative teams, part-time and shift-based working, and a range of pay arrangements. We handle payroll processing, PAYE, pension contributions and the reporting that sits behind it, and we help you understand how staffing costs affect your overall financial position, budgets and cash flow.

VAT treatment in a hospital setting is not a single blanket rule. It depends on the nature of the supply, the activities involved, the organisation's status and the specific circumstances, so two hospitals can face quite different positions depending on what they provide and how they are structured. We review your activities and income streams, explain where VAT is likely to apply, and help you keep records and reporting in line with the treatment that fits your situation.

We do. Medical equipment, facilities upgrades and other capital expenditure involve significant outlay, and decisions about buying, leasing or financing assets affect your accounts, cash flow and tax position. We can help you plan for these costs, understand how they will be reflected in your financial statements, and keep your reporting accurate so you can make those decisions with a clear picture of the numbers.

Getting started is straightforward. We begin with a conversation about your hospital, how it is structured, what it does and what you need from an accountant, then review your current accounting and tax position. If you are moving from another accountant, we can liaise with them and handle the handover of records, so the transition stays smooth and your bookkeeping, payroll and filing deadlines are not disrupted.
