The day-to-day work covers the compliance essentials — preparing and filing Self Assessment returns, annual accounts and Corporation Tax returns, running payroll, handling VAT where it applies, and keeping bookkeeping up to date. Beyond that, a healthcare accountant should help you interpret what the numbers mean for your practice: how much to set aside for tax, whether your current structure still suits you, how a change in sessions, associates or staff affects your position, and what to do about mixed NHS and private income. The aim is to take the administrative weight off your shoulders while giving you advice that is relevant to how healthcare income actually works.
It can, mainly because the two income streams are treated differently and need to be reported accurately together. NHS salary is usually taxed through PAYE, while private fees, locum payments and self-employed income generally need to be reported through Self Assessment. Where you incur costs that support both types of work — professional indemnity insurance, registration fees, travel between sites — the way you apportion them matters. Keeping income and expenses separated by source throughout the year makes your return far more straightforward, and it reduces the risk of queries later.
Many healthcare services are exempt from VAT, which is why practices often assume VAT is not a concern. In practice it depends on what you do. Some treatments, dispensing arrangements, product sales, room hire and non-clinical services can fall outside the exemption, and mixed supplies create partial exemption complications. If your taxable turnover crosses the registration threshold, or you are unsure whether your services are exempt, it is worth reviewing your position before HMRC raises the question for you.
Typical claims include professional indemnity insurance, annual registration fees for bodies such as the GMC, NMC or GDC, clinical clothing and equipment used for work, relevant training and continuing professional development, professional subscriptions, and business mileage. What is allowable depends on whether the cost is incurred wholly and exclusively for your work, and whether you are employed, self-employed or operating through a company. It is worth keeping receipts and a clear record of why each cost was incurred, because that evidence supports the claim if it is ever reviewed.
Yes. Practice payroll often involves salaried clinicians, part-time reception and admin staff, dental nurses or carers, locums paid through the payroll, variable hours, overtime and pension auto-enrolment. We can run the payroll end to end, including real-time reporting to HMRC, payslips, pension contributions and the year-end processes, so these duties are not sitting on your practice manager's to-do list alongside everything else. If you currently run payroll in-house, moving it across is usually a straightforward process.
Operating through a limited company brings additional filing requirements, including annual accounts and a Corporation Tax return, plus confirmation statements and, in most cases, payroll for any director salary. There are also questions about how you take money out of the company — salary, dividends or a mix — and how that interacts with your personal tax position. Where a company holds equipment, premises or contracts, the bookkeeping needs to be reliable enough to support accurate accounts and to give you a realistic view of profit.
Yes. Much of the accounting process now runs perfectly well remotely. Documents and records can be shared securely online, bookkeeping software allows both you and your accountant to see the same figures, and meetings can take place by phone or video at times that fit around clinics and theatre lists. Many healthcare clients find this easier than arranging to visit an office, particularly when their working hours are unpredictable. What matters is that you have a clear route to ask questions and get answers from someone who knows your file.
It usually begins with a short conversation about your circumstances — your role, how your income is structured, whether you employ anyone, and what is currently causing you concern. From there, a review of your existing records, returns and any outstanding filings will show what needs attention first, whether that is bringing bookkeeping up to date, catching up on a return or simply putting a reliable routine in place. Once the immediate position is clear, we can agree how much support you want, from full bookkeeping and payroll through to annual accounts and tax planning.
