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 hospitals and hospital businesses of different shapes and sizes, including private hospitals, independent hospitals, hospital operators and hospital groups. Their accounting needs vary considerably depending on how they are structured, the services they provide, their income streams, staffing arrangements, premises, medical equipment and supplier commitments. Because hospital operations are capital-intensive and people-intensive, the financial reporting and tax position of each organisation tends to look quite different from the next.

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.

Accounting Services Built for Hospitals

As Accountants for Hospitals, we provide annual accounts, bookkeeping, management accounts and payroll support that reflect the realities of running a hospital business, from staff costs and medical equipment to premises, suppliers and professional services. We also help with budgeting, cash flow planning, financial reporting and tax matters such as Corporation Tax where applicable and VAT support where relevant, so you can see how different income streams and operating costs affect the overall picture. The aim is straightforward: clear, accurate information you can act on.

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.

Accounting Challenges Hospitals Face

Hospitals typically carry heavy operating costs, including staff payroll, medical equipment and capital expenditure, premises and facilities, and regular payments to a wide range of suppliers. These commitments can put pressure on cash flow, particularly when income arrives through multiple streams at different times or when reporting deadlines fall close together. VAT treatment also depends on the nature of the supply, the activities involved and the organisation’s status, so it pays to look at the specific circumstances rather than assume a single approach applies. That mix of operational and financial complexity is why hospitals often need accounting support that understands more than the numbers alone.

Our Simple 3-Step Process for Hospitals

We start by getting to know your hospital or hospital business, including how it is structured, how it earns income and where the financial pressure points sit.

Once that picture is clear, we provide practical help on an ongoing basis, adapting as your operations, staffing and reporting needs change.

FAQs About Accountants for Hospitals

We support hospitals and hospital businesses across a range of structures, including private hospitals, independent hospitals, hospital operators and hospital groups. Whether you run a single site or manage several locations under one organisation, the accounting work is shaped around how you are set up, how you generate income and what your cost base looks like. The aim is to give you reporting and tax support that matches your actual operations rather than a generic template.

Our work for hospitals usually covers bookkeeping, payroll, annual accounts, management accounts, financial reporting, budgeting and cash flow planning. We can also support tax matters such as Corporation Tax where applicable and VAT considerations where relevant, along with the records and processes that sit behind them. Because hospitals often have complex cost structures, we take time to understand which areas need the most attention and prioritise accordingly.

We work on fixed, transparent packages, so you know what you are paying for before anything begins. The scope depends on factors such as the size of your hospital business, the number of staff on payroll, the volume of transactions and the level of reporting or tax support you need. There are no hidden fees, and if your requirements change, we will discuss the options with you rather than leaving you with an unexpected invoice.

Yes. Hospitals often run large and varied payrolls, covering clinical, administrative, facilities and support roles, sometimes with shift patterns, overtime and variable hours. We can manage payroll processing, pay slips, pension contributions and the associated reporting, helping to keep everything accurate and on time. This is often one of the most valuable areas of support for a hospital business, simply because payroll is such a significant part of the cost base.

VAT treatment for hospitals is not a single, blanket answer. It depends on the nature of the supply, the activities involved, the organisation's status and the specific circumstances, and different income streams can be treated differently. We review your position in detail, help you understand which supplies fall where, and make sure your returns and records reflect the reality of your operations rather than assumptions.

We do. Medical equipment, facilities upgrades and other capital expenditure can have a significant effect on your accounts, your cash flow and your tax position over time. We help you record and report these costs properly, factor them into budgets and cash flow forecasts, and understand how they interact with your wider financial picture. That makes planning for replacement, expansion or new investment far more straightforward.

Usually we ask for your latest accounts, your current bookkeeping records, payroll details and any relevant tax correspondence, along with some background on how your hospital business operates. If you are switching accountants, we can help coordinate the handover of information so the transition is smooth. From there, we map out what needs doing and agree a clear way forward.

Getting started is simple: get in touch and tell us about your hospital or hospital business, what you currently have in place and what you would like to improve. We will review your accounting and tax requirements, explain how we can help and set out a clear, fixed-fee scope before any work begins. There is no obligation to proceed, and no jargon along the way.
