Healthcare accountants handle the same core compliance work as any accountant — Self Assessment, annual accounts, Corporation Tax, payroll, VAT and bookkeeping — but with an understanding of how clinical income works. In practice, that means correctly treating NHS salary alongside private fees and locum income, dealing with superannuation and pension paperwork, identifying the professional expenses that qualify for healthcare roles, and advising on structures such as sole trader, partnership or limited company for practitioners and practices.
It is helpful. As a locum or associate you may be treated as self-employed while also having PAYE income from elsewhere, and your expenses follow sector-specific rules. Indemnity insurance, professional registration fees, clinical equipment, mileage between sites and CPD costs all need to be treated correctly, and the interaction with any NHS pension contributions adds another layer. A specialist approach reduces the risk of overpaying tax or receiving an enquiry letter about your returns.
Yes. Many clients have a mix of NHS salary or pension income, private patient fees, locum payments and, in some cases, dividends from a limited company. Each element is reported in the appropriate place on the return, with the correct tax treatment applied. The key is having complete records for each income stream so that the figures reconcile and any tax already deducted through PAYE is properly credited.
Common claims include professional body and registration fees, medical indemnity insurance, uniforms and protective clothing, specialist equipment and instruments, professional journals and reference materials, and relevant CPD or training that maintains existing skills. Travel between sites, mileage and a proportion of home running costs can also qualify in the right circumstances. What is less clear-cut is training that qualifies you for new work, personal grooming, and routine commuting — these generally do not qualify, which is why we review expenses individually rather than applying a blanket rule.
Not automatically. Most healthcare services provided by registered professionals are exempt from VAT, but that does not cover everything — cosmetic treatments, dispensing, retail sales, medico-legal reports and some consultancy can be taxable. If a practice has a mixture of exempt and taxable income, the VAT registration threshold and partial exemption rules need to be considered, as does recovering VAT on costs. We review the nature of your services before advising on registration.
We run payroll for salaried staff, part-time admin and reception teams, and where relevant for clinical staff paid through the practice. That includes calculating PAYE and National Insurance, issuing payslips, handling starter and leaver information, dealing with auto-enrolment pension duties, and reporting to HMRC on time. For practices with a mix of employees and self-employed clinicians, we also advise on the correct employment status treatment so that arrangements are consistent and defensible.
Yes. Accounting work is largely digital, and we can handle records, payroll, VAT and returns through secure online sharing of documents, with conversations by phone, email or video call. That suits locums, practitioners who split their time between sites, and clinic owners who would rather not spend their working day travelling to appointments. What matters is that records reach us in a usable format and that deadlines are agreed in advance.
The first step is a conversation about your circumstances — your role, your income sources, whether you operate as a sole trader, partnership or limited company, and what you currently have in place for bookkeeping and returns. From there we review your existing position, including any outstanding filings or HMRC correspondence, and set up the services you need, whether that is straightforward Self Assessment, full practice accounts and payroll, or a broader advisory arrangement. If you are moving from another accountant, we can manage the handover and notify HMRC on your behalf.
