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.

Hospitals and Hospital Organisations We Support

We support a broad range of hospital organisations, including private hospitals, independent hospitals, hospital operators and hospital groups, along with businesses that run or manage hospital facilities. Their accounting requirements can differ considerably depending on how they are structured, the services they provide, their income streams, staffing arrangements, premises, medical equipment, supplier contracts and day-to-day operating costs. Understanding those differences is what allows the numbers to reflect how the hospital genuinely operates rather than fitting it into a generic template.

Private Hospitals & Day Surgery Units

Insurer and self-pay income reconciliation, consultant fee arrangements, statutory accounts and management reporting by department.

Care Homes & Nursing Homes

Occupancy and fee income tracking, local authority and private resident billing, agency staff cost control and CQC-ready records.

Specialist & Outpatient Clinics

VAT partial exemption on mixed medical and cosmetic work, capital allowances on theatre and imaging equipment, and payroll for clinical teams.

Multi-Site Healthcare Groups

Consolidated accounts, intercompany recharges, group VAT and site-by-site profitability reporting for expanding providers.

Our Accounting Services for Hospitals

As Accountants for Hospitals, we take care of the core financial work that keeps a hospital running smoothly, including annual accounts, bookkeeping, management accounts, payroll, budgeting, cash flow forecasting, financial reporting, Corporation Tax where applicable and VAT support where relevant. Everything is approached with hospital operations in mind, from staff costs, rotas and medical equipment through to premises, facilities, suppliers, professional services and multiple income streams. The result is accurate records and reporting that actually helps you make decisions about staffing, investment and growth.

Corporation Tax & Capital Allowances

Full expensing and Annual Investment Allowance claims on theatre, imaging and ward equipment, plus group relief and tax planning.

Bookkeeping & VAT Partial Exemption

Healthcare is largely VAT exempt, but cosmetic work, pharmacy sales, catering and room hire are not. We calculate partial exemption correctly.

Statutory & Management Accounts

Companies House and HMRC filings on time, plus monthly management accounts showing income and margin by department or site.

Large-volume payroll including bank and agency shifts, unsocial hours, statutory pay and pension auto-enrolment, filed accurately every cycle.

NHS Pension & Consultant Payments

NHS Pension administration and support for consultants on Annual Allowance, plus correct treatment of self-employed consultant fees.

Accounting Challenges Hospitals Face

Hospitals carry financial pressures that most businesses never encounter, from large and variable staff payrolls through to medical equipment, capital expenditure, premises and facilities costs, and supplier payments that all need careful management. Balancing those outgoings against several different income streams makes cash flow and accurate financial reporting genuinely demanding, and VAT treatment can vary depending on the nature of the supply, the activities involved, the organisation’s status and the specific circumstances. Accounting support that understands hospital operations helps keep all of this visible, compliant and under control.

FAQs About Accountants for Hospitals

It covers the day-to-day and year-end financial work a hospital needs, including bookkeeping, payroll, annual accounts, management accounts, budgeting, cash flow forecasting, financial reporting, Corporation Tax where applicable and VAT support where relevant. Because hospitals carry significant staff costs, equipment and premises overheads, the reporting is shaped around how those costs behave rather than being pushed into a generic format. You get accurate records and numbers you can genuinely use when making decisions about staffing, investment and growth.

We support private hospitals, independent hospitals, hospital operators and hospital groups, along with hospital businesses involved in running or managing hospital facilities. Accounting needs vary widely across those organisations, since a single-site independent hospital has a very different financial profile to a multi-site operator with several income streams and shared overheads. We tailor the support to your structure, your activities and the way your hospital is run.

We work on fixed, transparent packages rather than open-ended hourly billing, so you know what you are paying for and what it covers. The scope depends on the size of the hospital, the number of staff on payroll, the complexity of your income streams and the depth of reporting you need. We will talk through your requirements, agree the scope in advance and confirm the fee before any work begins, with no hidden extras appearing later.

Yes. Hospital payroll tends to be complex, with a mix of contracted and variable hours, different staff groups, overtime and shift patterns, and frequent changes from one month to the next. We handle payroll processing, payslips, RTI submissions and the pension obligations that come with it, and we make sure the figures flow through into your management accounts so staff costs stay visible rather than arriving as a monthly surprise.

It depends on the nature of the supply, the activities involved, the organisation's status and the specific circumstances, so there is no single answer that applies to every hospital. Some supplies may be exempt while others are standard-rated, and a mix of activities can bring partial exemption into play. We review what you actually provide and how it is structured, then advise on the treatment that applies to your hospital.

Yes. Where applicable, we prepare and file Corporation Tax computations and returns, and we look at how capital expenditure on medical equipment, facilities and premises improvements is treated for tax purposes. Planning ahead on significant purchases helps you understand the cash flow impact and make proper use of the reliefs available to your hospital.

That is common for hospital businesses, whether income comes from private patient fees, procedures, diagnostics, consulting arrangements, insurance work or other services. We structure the bookkeeping and reporting so each stream stays visible, which makes it far easier to see which areas are performing well and where margins are being squeezed. It also keeps your overall tax position clearer and easier to explain.

It usually starts with a conversation about your hospital, how it is structured and what is currently causing friction in the accounts. If you are moving from another accountant, we handle the handover, request the relevant records and make sure deadlines and filings stay on track throughout the switch. From there we agree the scope, put the support in place and take the day-to-day accounting work off your plate.
