It covers everything a general accountant does, applied to the way healthcare income works. That includes preparing and submitting Self Assessment returns, calculating payments on account, preparing annual accounts for incorporated practices, handling Corporation Tax, running bookkeeping, processing payroll for practice staff or associates, managing VAT registration and returns, and advising on business structure. The healthcare element matters because income frequently combines NHS salary, private fees, session or locum work and practice profit, and each element needs to be treated correctly rather than lumped together.
In most cases, yes. Income from locum sessions or private fees is usually taxed through Self Assessment rather than PAYE alone, particularly where tax has not been deducted at source or where your total income is above the threshold for filing. Even where PAYE applies to part of your income, the combination of salary and untaxed fees often means a return is required. It is worth reviewing your position each year, as a change in sessions, private work or additional roles can alter whether you need to file and how much you should expect to pay.
Broadly, costs that are incurred wholly and exclusively for your professional or business activity. Common examples include professional body and registration fees, indemnity or malpractice insurance, CPD and study costs relating to your existing work, specialist clothing and equipment, clinical software, and a reasonable proportion of home office running costs where you genuinely work from home. Mileage and travel between appointments or sites can also be relevant. The detail matters, and claims need to be supportable, so it is better to review what you are spending than to assume everything is allowable.
It depends on the nature and level of your activity. Many healthcare services are exempt from VAT, but private treatments, cosmetic work, dispensing, retail sales, laboratory services and certain non-clinical income can be taxable. If your taxable turnover exceeds the registration threshold within a rolling twelve-month period, registration is generally required. Where a business has a mixture of exempt and taxable income, partial exemption rules may also apply. This is an area where the treatment of each income stream should be reviewed carefully rather than assumed.
Yes. We can run payroll for practice staff, salaried clinicians and associates, including starters and leavers, statutory payments, pension contributions and auto-enrolment obligations, along with the reporting that accompanies them. Many practices find payroll becomes more complex as soon as they employ more than one or two people, particularly where part-time hours, variable sessions or several pension arrangements are involved. Taking it over also reduces the risk of missed real-time reporting deadlines.
The simplest approach is to keep business income and expenditure in a separate account from personal spending, and to capture receipts as you go rather than storing them. Digital bookkeeping makes this far easier than a manual system, since bank transactions can be categorised and reconciled regularly instead of being sorted once a year. Where practice and personal costs genuinely overlap, such as household utilities for a home office, a consistent and documented method of apportionment is far easier to defend if HMRC ever queries it.
Yes. Most accounting work can be handled remotely, using secure document sharing and cloud bookkeeping software. Records can be uploaded as they arise, queries answered by email or video call, and returns prepared without you needing to visit an office between clinics. Many healthcare clients find this suits their schedule better than fixed appointments, particularly those working shifts, session lists or across multiple sites. We will agree upfront how and when information is exchanged so deadlines are never a surprise.
It starts with a conversation about how you work and what you need. We will ask about your income sources, your current business structure, your existing accounting arrangements and the deadlines coming up, then review your tax position, records, VAT and payroll setup. From there we agree the scope of support, confirm who is responsible for what, and set up the bookkeeping and reporting arrangements. If you are partway through a tax year or have outstanding returns, that can be addressed as part of the same process rather than treated as a barrier to switching.
