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.

Who We Work With Across the Healthcare Sector

Our healthcare accounting service is designed for the wide range of people and organisations that make up the sector. That includes sole practitioner GPs and private doctors, dentists and dental practices, pharmacists and pharmacy owners, nurses and advanced nurse practitioners, physiotherapists, chiropractors, osteopaths, podiatrists and other allied health professionals, as well as consultants, locums and sessional clinicians. We also support care providers, carers, domiciliary care agencies, private clinics, medical practices and partnerships, and healthcare businesses structured as limited companies. The financial circumstances behind each of these vary considerably. A locum consultant may be juggling NHS payslips alongside private practice fees, while a clinic partnership needs to think about profit shares, employed staff and practice overheads. Practitioners working through their own limited company face different questions again, around salary and dividend planning, Corporation Tax and extracting profits efficiently. Many healthcare professionals also have income from teaching, medico-legal work, research, insurance work or a rental property, all of which need to be brought together correctly on a tax return. Whatever your setup, the starting point is understanding how your income, expenses and obligations actually fit together.

Supporting independent practitioners with tax planning and NHS pension advice.

Offering tailored financial solutions for dental practices and their specific needs.

Supporting medical practices and private clinics with accounts, tax, bookkeeping, payroll and financial management.

Accounting and Tax Services for Healthcare Professionals

Our work with healthcare clients covers the full range of accounting and tax requirements, shaped around how you actually earn and spend. Self Assessment sits at the heart of much of it, particularly where you have a combination of NHS income, private fees, locum work or other self-employed earnings that need reporting accurately and on time. For those trading through a limited company — a common structure for private practitioners and clinic owners — we prepare annual accounts and Corporation Tax returns, and advise on the most appropriate and tax-efficient way to take money out of the business. Bookkeeping sits underneath all of this, whether that means cloud software set up and maintained for you, or support catching up on records that have fallen behind. Payroll matters to practices with receptionists, nurses or administrative staff, and to care providers with rotas and varying hours, so we handle payslips, PAYE, pension contributions and the associated reporting. Where turnover crosses the VAT threshold, we manage registration, returns and the schemes that suit healthcare work, including the treatment of exempt and standard-rated supplies. Beyond compliance, we provide tax planning, business structure advice when you are starting out, joining a practice or restructuring, management accounts and financial reporting for practice owners who want a clearer view of profitability and cash flow.

Professional preparation of your annual financial statements.

Accurate and timely filing of all required tax submissions.

Common Accounting and Tax Challenges for Healthcare Clients

Healthcare work rarely produces a simple set of accounts. Income streams overlap, expenses are easily missed, and the tax rules do not always behave as people expect. These are the issues we see most often.

  • Multiple income sources that need to be reported together. Many healthcare professionals receive NHS income, private fees, locum payments and occasionally teaching or medico-legal income in the same tax year. Getting the totals right, and knowing which figures belong on which part of a tax return, takes care and experience.
  • Misunderstanding around allowable expenses. Professional indemnity insurance, GMC, NMC or GDC registration fees, medical equipment, uniforms, professional journals, CPD courses and a proportion of home costs can often be claimed — but only where the rules allow. Claiming too little is as much of a problem as claiming too much.
  • IR35, off-payroll working and employment status. Where healthcare professionals provide services through an intermediary to an NHS body or other public authority, the off-payroll rules can apply. Establishing the correct status before contracts are signed avoids awkward conversations later.
  • Record keeping that lapses during busy periods. Clinical workloads do not pause for the tax year to end. Receipts get filed in a drawer, bank transactions go unlabelled, and by January the paperwork has become a project in itself.
  • VAT treatment of healthcare supplies. Some healthcare services are exempt from VAT, others are not, and the distinction is not always obvious — particularly for clinics offering a mix of medical and cosmetic or non-medical services. Getting this wrong can be costly.
  • Cash flow and profitability in practice ownership. Practice owners carry fixed costs such as premises, staff and equipment finance while income can be irregular. Understanding true profitability, and planning for tax bills and pension contributions, requires proper management information rather than guesswork.

Why Choose Us as Your Healthcare Accountants

Healthcare professionals tend to come to us for two reasons. The first is technical: they want an accountant who already understands how NHS income, private fees, locum work, practice profits and limited company structures fit together, so that the numbers are right and nothing obvious is missed. The second is practical: they want clear communication, sensible deadlines and someone who will answer a question without turning it into a two-week project. Our approach is built around that. We explain the tax position in plain language rather than jargon, flag obligations before they become problems, and keep records organised so that year-end work is a routine exercise rather than a scramble. Where you are deciding between self-employment and a limited company, taking on a partner, buying into a practice or bringing in associates, we can work through the implications with you. The support is structured but not rigid — some clients want a full outsourced finance function, others simply want their tax return prepared accurately and on time.

Our Simple 3-Step Process for Healthcare Clients

Getting the right accounting support does not need to be complicated. We begin with an initial conversation to understand how you work — your role, your income sources, your structure, your staff and any deadlines already approaching. From there we carry out a review of your current accounting and tax position, looking at records, filings, VAT status, payroll arrangements and anything that may need attention or correction. Once that picture is clear, we set out the support that fits: the services you need, who does what, how information will be shared and when things are due. Implementation is then handled with you rather than around you, and we stay available for questions as circumstances change — a new contract, a change in income, a practice expansion or a decision about how to structure your work.

1. Initial Consultation (It’s Free):

We begin by getting to know your practice and your specific needs. This step ensures we have a clear picture of your challenges, goals, and the opportunities available to you.

2. Customised Plan:

Based on our initial discussion, we create a personalised plan designed specifically for you. Our aim is to keep your healthcare finances straightforward, with your numbers handled accurately and professionally by dedicated healthcare accountants.

3. Ongoing Support & Updates:

From there, we take care of the ongoing work and keep you updated with clear, regular reports. We're always here to answer your questions, ensuring you have a clear picture of your financial health at all times.

Why CruseBurke as Your Healthcare Accountants

CruseBurke provides accounting, tax and compliance support to healthcare professionals and healthcare businesses, with the sector’s particular pressures firmly in view. That means handling Self Assessment for clinicians with mixed income streams, preparing annual accounts and Corporation Tax returns for practices and limited companies, running payroll for staff and care teams, managing VAT registration and returns where the threshold is relevant, and keeping day-to-day bookkeeping in order so that decisions are based on current numbers rather than last year’s. For practice owners, management accounts and financial reporting can turn a vague sense of how things are going into a clearer picture of margins, overheads and cash flow, which matters when premises costs and staff wages are fixed. For individuals, the focus is on accurate reporting, appropriate claims for professional expenses, and planning ahead for tax bills rather than meeting them unexpectedly. Throughout, we aim to keep the relationship straightforward: measured advice, timely filing, and a willingness to explain the reasoning behind a recommendation so that you can make an informed decision.

FAQs about Accountants for Healthcare in Liss

It depends on how you work, but typically covers Self Assessment for self-employed, locum or mixed-income clinicians, annual accounts and Corporation Tax returns for limited companies and practices, bookkeeping and record maintenance, payroll for staff and care teams, VAT registration and returns where applicable, and tax planning around income and business structure. Many healthcare clients combine several of these, particularly where they have both employed and self-employed income in the same tax year.

Yes. Mixed income of this kind is common in healthcare and needs careful handling. We look at each income stream separately, confirm which figures are employed and which are self-employed, review the expenses you can properly claim against each, and bring everything together on your tax return. Where work is provided through a limited company or intermediary to an NHS body, we also consider whether the off-payroll working rules apply.

You can file your own return, and many people do. The difficulty tends to appear when income comes from more than one source, when expenses are unclear, or when a decision such as incorporating or joining a practice has tax consequences. An accountant's value is in getting the detail right, identifying claims you may have overlooked, and flagging deadlines and liabilities before they arrive rather than after.

Many healthcare services provided by registered professionals are exempt from VAT, but the position is not universal. Clinics offering a mix of medical and non-medical or cosmetic services, and businesses selling goods alongside treatment, can have a more complicated picture. Once taxable turnover crosses the registration threshold, you generally need to register, and the correct treatment of each supply matters. We review your activities and advise on registration, scheme choice and reporting.

Commonly claimed items include professional body and registration fees, professional indemnity insurance, medical equipment and instruments, uniforms and laundry where relevant, professional journals and subscriptions, CPD and training that maintains existing skills, and a reasonable proportion of home running costs if you work from home. Travel between sites can sometimes qualify, but ordinary commuting generally does not. The rules are specific, so we review each item rather than applying a blanket approach.

Yes, and it is one of the most common situations we deal with. We start by establishing what records exist, reconstructing anything missing from bank statements, invoices and payment records, and then bringing the bookkeeping up to date before the relevant filing deadline. Once things are current, we usually move you onto straightforward cloud bookkeeping so the backlog does not rebuild.

We can handle the full payroll cycle — calculating pay, issuing payslips, submitting PAYE information to HMRC, managing statutory payments such as sick pay and parental leave, and dealing with workplace pension duties. For care providers and practices with variable hours, rotas and shift patterns, this removes a recurring administrative burden and helps ensure staff are paid accurately and on time.

It begins with a conversation about your circumstances — your role, how your income is structured, whether you have staff, and any deadlines already approaching. We then review your current accounting and tax position, including existing filings and records, and set out the support that fits. From there we agree how information will be shared and when things are due, so the arrangement is clear from the outset.
