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 work with private hospitals, independent hospitals, hospital operators and hospital groups that need accounting support tailored to a complex, capital-heavy and staff-intensive operating model. The accounting requirements of a hospital can vary significantly depending on its legal structure, the treatments and services it provides, its income streams, its workforce, its premises and facilities, its medical equipment, and the suppliers and professional services it relies on. A single-site independent hospital will often have a very different picture from a multi-site hospital group, so the support we provide starts with understanding how your organisation is put together before anything else.

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 cover the core areas that keep a hospital’s finances accurate and manageable — annual accounts, day-to-day bookkeeping, management accounts, payroll, budgeting, cash flow forecasting, financial reporting and VAT support, along with Corporation Tax and wider tax support where it applies to your structure. Because hospital finances are rarely straightforward, we look closely at the detail behind the numbers: staff costs and rota-driven payroll, medical equipment purchases and financing, premises and facilities costs, supplier and professional service payments, and the mix of income streams a hospital can generate. The aim is to give you reliable figures you can actually make decisions with, rather than a set of accounts that only makes sense in hindsight.

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.

Payroll for Clinical & Agency Staff

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.

Key Accounting Challenges Hospitals Face

Hospitals carry a distinctive financial profile: high and largely fixed staff costs, significant spend on medical equipment and capital expenditure, substantial premises and facilities overheads, and a steady flow of supplier and professional service payments that all need to be tracked accurately. Cash flow can be uneven when income arrives through a range of different streams, and that makes budgeting, forecasting and timely financial reporting genuinely important rather than a box-ticking exercise. Tax adds a further layer — Corporation Tax where it applies to the structure, and VAT considerations that depend on the nature of the supplies being made, the activities involved, the organisation’s status and the specific circumstances, rather than a single blanket rule. That combination is why hospitals often benefit from accounting support that understands both the operational reality and the compliance requirements.

Our Simple 3-Step Process for Hospitals

We keep things simple: first we get to know your hospital or hospital business — how it is structured, what it does and how it earns its income. Next we review your accounting and tax requirements, including any gaps, deadlines or compliance issues that need attention. From there we put the right ongoing support in place, whether that is bookkeeping, payroll, management accounts, annual accounts or tax work, and adjust it as your needs change.

1. Initial Consultation (It’s Free):

We begin by getting to know your practice and understanding your unique needs. This step ensures we have a clear picture of your operations and your goals.

2. Customised Plan:

Based on our initial discussion, we create a personalised plan designed specifically for you. The aim is to keep everything organised and easy to follow. You can rest assured that your numbers are being handled with expert precision.

3. Ongoing Support & Updates:

From there, we take care of the ongoing work and keep you updated with reports. You’ll always know what’s happening, and we’re always here to answer your questions, ensuring you have a clear picture of your financial health at all times.

Accounting Support Built Around Hospitals

Accounting support for a hospital needs to fit the shape of the organisation, so we start by tailoring the basics: bookkeeping that captures the real cost structure, payroll that copes with a varied and shift-based workforce, annual and management accounts, and financial reporting that gives you a clear view of performance. Alongside that, we help with cash flow and budgeting, tax support where it applies, and the ongoing tracking of medical equipment costs, premises, suppliers and operating expenses. The focus is on practical value — accurate numbers, sensible advice and support you can rely on — rather than on claims we cannot stand behind.

Technology Driven

Using the latest technology to offer customised financial strategies that help healthcare practices grow and thrive.

FAQs About Accountants for Hospitals

It covers the areas most hospital businesses need: bookkeeping and record keeping, payroll for your staff, management accounts, annual accounts, budgeting and cash flow forecasting, financial reporting, Corporation Tax support where it applies, and VAT support where relevant. Because hospitals tend to have complex cost structures, we also help you track categories such as medical equipment, premises and facilities, supplier payments and professional services, so your reporting gives a realistic picture of how the organisation is performing. You can take the full package or just the parts you need.

We work with private hospitals, independent hospitals, hospital operators and hospital groups, along with the hospital businesses that sit behind them. The right approach depends heavily on your structure and activities — a single-site independent hospital will have different reporting and tax needs from a group operating across several sites with multiple income streams. We are not positioned to act for NHS Trusts, NHS Foundation Trusts or other public-sector organisations, so if that is your situation we would rather be upfront about it than waste your time.

We work on fixed, transparent packages rather than open-ended hourly billing, so you know what you are paying for and there are no hidden fees or surprise invoices. The level of investment depends on the size and complexity of your hospital, the volume of transactions, the number of staff on payroll, and which services you need. Once we understand your requirements we will set out exactly what is included, and we will always discuss any change in scope with you before it happens rather than after.

Your accounts, tax returns and payroll are prepared in line with current UK accounting standards and HMRC requirements, with deadlines and filing obligations tracked so nothing slips through the net. Rather than making broad claims about credentials, we will tell you plainly who will be looking after your work and what they are qualified to do, so you can make an informed decision. If you are switching from another accountant, we will also make sure the handover is handled properly and that your records are complete.

Corporation Tax is a key consideration for many hospital companies, along with how capital expenditure on medical equipment and premises improvements is treated over time. VAT is often more nuanced than people expect: the treatment depends on the nature of the supplies being made, the activities involved, the organisation's status and the specific circumstances, so it is not a case of everything a hospital does being exempt or everything being taxable. Getting that analysis right matters, and we will work through your individual position rather than applying a generic rule.

Yes. Hospital payroll is rarely a simple monthly run — you may have shift patterns, varied hours, overtime, bank or locum arrangements, pension contributions and different contract types to account for. We handle the payroll process end to end, including calculations, payslips, pension deductions and the associated reporting, so your staff are paid accurately and on time and your obligations are met. Clean payroll data also feeds directly into your management accounts, which makes your staff cost reporting far more useful.

Switching is usually more straightforward than people expect. We ask for some basic information about your hospital or hospital group, then handle the professional handover with your existing accountant on your behalf, including obtaining the records and information we need. We will check that your bookkeeping is up to date, flag anything that needs tidying, and set out a clear timeline so you know what happens and when. There is no need to have everything perfectly in order before you speak to us.

The first step is a straightforward conversation about your hospital, how it is structured, what it does and what you need from an accountant. From there we review your current accounting and tax position, identify anything that needs attention, and put together a clear proposal covering the services, the fixed fee and what is included. If it looks like a good fit, we agree the next steps and arrange the handover. If it does not, we will tell you honestly rather than push you into something that is not right for your organisation.
