The core work covers Self Assessment for clinicians with employed, self-employed or mixed income, annual accounts and Corporation Tax for practices and healthcare companies, bookkeeping, VAT returns, payroll for clinical and administrative staff, and tax planning around structure and income. Because healthcare income frequently arrives from more than one place — NHS contracts, private fees, locum sessions, teaching or medico-legal work — a large part of the value lies in making sure every source is captured correctly and the resulting tax position is accurate.
Not everyone does, but healthcare brings specific complications that generalist accountants may not encounter often. Examples include VAT treatment of exempt versus standard-rated services, the way locum and associate income is reported, expenses such as registration fees and professional indemnity, and payroll for a mix of salaried clinical staff and associates. A specialist is used to these questions and can usually resolve them faster and with fewer surprises.
Both are generally reportable, but they can arise in different ways. Salaried NHS income is usually taxed through PAYE, while freelance locum sessions, private patient fees, waiting list initiative work and similar payments are typically self-employed income. All of it needs to be declared on the same Self Assessment return, and expenses must be allocated sensibly between the different streams. Getting this wrong can lead to an incorrect tax bill or an enquiry, so it is worth having it reviewed properly.
Yes. Many healthcare services are exempt from VAT, but that exemption does not cover everything — for example, some cosmetic or non-medical treatments, retail sales of products, and certain advisory services may be standard-rated. Where a business has a mixture of exempt and taxable income, partial exemption rules can apply. We can review your supplies, assess whether registration is required, handle returns if it is, and make sure the records behind the figures stand up to scrutiny.
Common examples include professional registration and regulatory fees, professional indemnity insurance, specialist equipment and instruments, uniform and laundry costs, CPD and relevant training, professional subscriptions, mileage for practice-related travel, and a proportionate share of home costs where a room is used for administrative work. The rules on what counts as wholly and exclusively for business purposes can be strict, so each claim should be considered on its own merits and supported by records.
We do. Payroll support can cover salaried GPs, practice nurses, reception and administrative staff, associates, carers and locum workers, including payslips, PAYE and National Insurance, statutory payments and pension auto-enrolment duties. For practices with varied contracts and pay arrangements, having payroll handled consistently each month reduces the risk of errors and keeps HMRC reporting on track.
Yes. Most of the work involved in accounting, tax returns, bookkeeping, VAT and payroll can be handled remotely using secure digital records and online communication, which suits healthcare professionals with unpredictable diaries. Documents can be shared electronically, questions answered by email or video call, and deadlines managed without you needing to travel to a meeting.
The process is usually straightforward. We begin with a conversation about your circumstances and what you need help with, then review your existing records, returns and filing position. If you decide to proceed, we contact your previous accountant for the relevant information and take over the filing responsibilities from an agreed date. Any outstanding deadlines are identified early so nothing is missed during the transition.
