It covers the usual accounting and tax work, applied to the way healthcare income and costs behave. In practice that means preparing annual accounts and tax returns, handling Self Assessment for sole traders, partners and locums, dealing with Corporation Tax for healthcare companies, bookkeeping, payroll for clinical and support staff, pension auto-enrolment administration, VAT advice where it applies, and tax planning around business structure, expenses and profit extraction. For practices, it often also includes management accounts so partners or directors can see how each service or site is performing.
It suits anyone providing healthcare or running a healthcare business, including GPs and doctors, dentists and dental practices, pharmacists and pharmacy owners, nurses and nurse practitioners, physiotherapists and other allied health professionals, private consultants, carers and care providers, and the clinics, practices and healthcare companies that employ them. Whether you work alone on a locum basis, operate as a partnership or trade through a limited company with staff, the accounting requirements differ — and the advice should be tailored to your setup rather than applied generically.
If you are self-employed, a partner in a practice, a locum, or you receive untaxed income such as private fees, rent or significant investment income, a Self Assessment return is usually required. Directors of healthcare companies also normally need to file one. The return needs to capture every source of income accurately — NHS payments, private work, insurer settlements, teaching or medico-legal fees — alongside the expenses you are entitled to claim. Filing late or leaving out a source of income can lead to penalties and interest, so it is worth confirming your position and keeping records well organised throughout the year.
They should be recorded separately and in enough detail to show where the money came from and what it relates to. NHS income may arrive through contracts, session payments or practice arrangements, while private income may come directly from patients or via insurers, and these can be taxed or reported differently depending on your structure. Keeping clean records of each stream makes it far easier to complete tax returns correctly, respond to queries, and understand which parts of your work are most profitable — which is useful information when you are deciding how to shape your working week.
Many healthcare services provided by registered health professionals are exempt from VAT, but the position is not identical for every service. Cosmetic or aesthetic treatments, retail sales such as products dispensed or sold, non-medical services and certain administrative arrangements may fall outside the exemption and could be taxable. That means registration thresholds and the VAT treatment of individual services need to be reviewed properly rather than assumed. Getting this wrong in either direction can be costly, so it is worth reviewing your service list with an adviser who understands healthcare.
Yes. We can run payroll for clinical, administrative and support staff, handling starters and leavers, tax codes, statutory payments and the reporting that goes with them. Pension auto-enrolment duties — assessing staff, enrolling eligible employees, calculating contributions and keeping the required records — can also be managed as part of the service. This is particularly helpful for practices where receptionists, nurses, hygienists or associates are paid on varying patterns, and where an accurate, timely payroll removes a recurring administrative burden from the practice manager or partners.
Common examples include professional body and regulatory registration fees, indemnity or professional insurance, medical and specialist equipment, continuing professional development, specialist clothing such as scrubs or uniforms, professional journals, and travel between sites or to patients. Where costs are used partly privately — a phone, a home office, a vehicle — only the business proportion is normally claimable, and the basis needs to be reasonable and documented. Because the rules around mixed-use expenses and capital items such as equipment can affect the tax position, it is worth reviewing your outgoings before submitting a return.
Remote working is well established for accounting, and it makes little difference to the quality of the support. Documents can be shared securely, cloud bookkeeping gives both parties access to the same figures, and meetings can take place by phone or video at times that fit around clinics and surgery hours. To begin, we would arrange an initial conversation to understand how you work, your income sources, your current structure and any immediate deadlines, then review your records and confirm what support is needed. From there, we agree responsibilities, set up bookkeeping or payroll where required, and put a clear filing calendar in place.
