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 private hospitals, independent hospitals, day-case and specialist hospital facilities, hospital operators, hospital groups and the wider hospital businesses that sit alongside them, including diagnostic and treatment centres. Their accounting requirements vary considerably depending on how they are structured, the range of services they provide, their income streams, staffing arrangements, premises, medical equipment and the suppliers and professional services they rely on day to day. That is why our approach begins with understanding the hospital itself rather than applying a one-size-fits-all set of accounts.

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

As Accountants for Hospitals, we handle the accounting work that keeps a hospital’s finances accurate and decision-ready, including bookkeeping, annual accounts, management accounts, payroll, budgeting, cash flow forecasting, financial reporting and VAT support, along with Corporation Tax where it applies. We relate that work directly to hospital operations — staff costs across clinical and non-clinical teams, medical equipment, premises and facilities, supplier payments, professional services and the different income streams a hospital may generate. The result is reliable financial information you can use to plan capacity, control operating costs and meet your compliance obligations with confidence.

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 Hospitals Face

Hospitals carry a distinctive set of financial pressures: significant and often unpredictable staff payroll, costly medical equipment and capital expenditure, substantial premises and facilities overheads, and supplier payments that need to be managed carefully to protect cash flow. Add multiple income streams, the need for timely and accurate financial reporting, and Corporation Tax and VAT considerations, and it becomes clear why general accounting support can struggle to keep pace. VAT in particular depends on the nature of each supply, the activities involved, the organisation’s status and the surrounding circumstances, so hospital accounting needs to be approached with care and consistency.

FAQs About Accountants for Hospitals

The service is built around your hospital's circumstances and can include bookkeeping, annual accounts, management accounts, payroll, budgeting and cash flow forecasting, financial reporting, tax support and VAT support, along with Corporation Tax work where it applies. Many hospital businesses also ask us to help with supplier and premises records, medical equipment costs and reporting on different income streams. If you only need part of that, we can focus the support where it is most useful to you.

We work with private hospitals, independent hospitals, day-case and specialist facilities, hospital operators and hospital groups, along with the hospital businesses that support them. Every organisation is different, so we look at how you are structured, what services you provide, how you earn income, how many staff you employ and the assets and premises you hold. That understanding shapes the accounting and tax support we provide.

We work on fixed, transparent packages rather than open-ended hourly billing, so you know what you are paying for and there are no hidden fees. The fee reflects the scope and complexity of your hospital's requirements — for example, the number of staff on payroll, the range of income streams, the volume of transactions and whether you need annual accounts, management accounts, tax or VAT support. We discuss this with you at the outset and agree the arrangement before any work begins.

No — VAT treatment is not uniform across hospitals. It depends on the nature of each supply, the activities involved, the organisation's status and the specific circumstances, and different services or income streams can be treated differently. Rather than assuming a blanket position, we review what your hospital actually does, how each supply is made and how it is recorded, and then help you apply the right treatment consistently and keep appropriate records.

Yes. Payroll is often one of the largest costs for a hospital, particularly where clinical rotas, overtime, enhancements and varied contract arrangements are involved, so it pays to keep it accurate and well organised. On the capital side, medical equipment and facility improvements can involve significant outlay, so we help you record those costs correctly, plan for them in your budgets and cash flow, and reflect any related tax relief appropriately based on your circumstances.

We do. Management accounts give you a clearer picture of how the hospital is performing, including income by service or funding stream, staff and supplier costs, and overall operating margins. Alongside that, cash flow planning helps you anticipate payroll runs, equipment purchases and supplier payments rather than reacting to them. Together they give you a stronger basis for decisions about capacity, staffing and investment.

Yes, switching is usually far less disruptive than people expect. We ask for the information we need from your existing adviser, review your current records and tax position, and make sure everything is properly brought across before we take over the ongoing work. If there are gaps or historic issues to address, we will explain them clearly and deal with them in a measured way, so your hospital's accounts and filings stay on track throughout the change.

It starts with a conversation about your hospital or hospital business — how it is set up, how it operates, what accounting and tax support you already have and where you feel the pressure most. From there we can outline the services that would be most useful and how a fixed, transparent arrangement would work for you. There is no obligation, and the first discussion is simply about understanding what you need.
