Year End Accounts for GP Practices, Clinics & Locums
Year end is the point where a healthcare business finds out whether the last twelve months actually worked. Getting there means reconciling NHS schedules, superannuation, private fees, stock, equipment finance and partner drawings before a single figure is filed. Our year end accountants for healthcare in London do that work for you. CruseBurke has advised British businesses since before the Second World War.

I have ueed Accotax for about 10 years and they always provided great service, my business closed hence I don't use them anymore but I highly recommend them.Posted on Google Oonagh McCarthyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our company has been with Accotax for almost 5 years now. Their system of monthly payments works well, as I am supported in our accounting for the business throughout the year by our dedicated accountant - Kalpesh. In the past we have been with accountants who charge only when the returns work is to be done. Although the total annual amount billed works out approx the same, previous accountants have never had much time or interest to answer questions to support our business through the year, which has led to mistakes, miscommunications and oversights. The Accotax model means that we have built a good, reliable relationship with our accountant. And I am very grateful to Kalpesh for his knowledge and support.Posted on Google Omar SharifTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent service. The full team is very experienced and look at all scenarios in detail. My account manager, Anum, is very pro active, and always willing to answer my queries quickly and thoroughly. Always provide documents and accounts well in advance of deadlines!Posted on Google Зайтуна «Анонимная татарка» ManningTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been working with Accotax since January 2024, and their support has grown alongside my business needs. My personal allocated Manager Umer ,provide tailored services for both of my companies, adapting as I expand and ensuring everything runs smoothly. They are responsive, knowledgeable, and always clear in their communication. Their help with accounts, VAT, payrolls, pensions and compliance gives me real confidence and peace of mind. I would highly recommend them to any business owner looking for reliable and professional accounting support.Posted on Google Arfan RiazTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Accotax have been my accountants for circa 9 years. Their service level has never dropped, always consistent and prompt. Recently, Muhammad Saifullah has taken over my accounts and has been tremendous, always following up with calls and emails, and going the extra mile in explaining things.Posted on Google Fernando CardonaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. When I first started my business, I was doing everything myself and working with a much smaller accountant. As the business grew, our needs became more complex, and it was clear we needed a firm that could grow with us. Accotax came recommended to us by another large property manager, and the experience has been excellent from the start. We first spoke with Abdul, one of the directors, and he was fantastic. He really took the time to understand our business model, asked the right questions, and explained complex concepts clearly and patiently. That level of care has carried through the wider team as well. We have now worked with two main account managers at Accotax, and overall it has been a very positive experience.Our business has a high volume of transactions and has become more complex over time, so thoroughness matters a lot to us. What I appreciate is that they have been willing to adapt their processes and find a sensible middle ground that works for both sides. They have also saved us once or twice on significant VAT bills through their prudence and attention to detail, which has been hugely valuable. That alone shows the benefit of having accountants who really understand the numbers and are thinking ahead. Like any business relationship, there have been the odd hiccups, but that is part of business. What matters is how those moments are handled, and the team have always been responsive, understanding, and solution-focused. I also think it is only fair to say that not every delay is down to the accountant. There have been times where I have been late in providing information, and that naturally affects timelines. Accotax have been very patient throughout. Communication has been another real strength. We speak on WhatsApp for urgent matters, which makes things much quicker and easier, and I appreciate that they are open to practical ways of working rather than forcing everything through long email chains. Overall, I only have good things to say. They are knowledgeable, flexible, and genuinely good to work with. We will be continuing to work with them for the foreseeable future, and I would happily recommend them to anyone who feels their current accountant is no longer the right fit, or whose business has outgrown their current firm. A special shout out to Abdul, Muhammad Umer, and AnumPosted on Google Hugo AlvarezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am very satisfied with the service provided by Muhammad Saifullah. He has been handling my tax situation in the UK with great professionalism, clarity and attention to detail. He took the time to explain every step of the process and made a complex situation much easier to understand. I felt confident and well supported throughout. I would highly recommend his services.Posted on Google Marta CangaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent advice and service. Umer and Raza, in particular, have been super efficient and reliable. I trust them with making sure my business is tax efficient and also provide more financial advice beyond. Thank you for such an amazing service and for being such a pleasure to work with! Highly recommend ⭐️Posted on Google Fawaz ShaheenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a great experience working with Accotax. They are professionals in UK tax and had great command over their skill. I would personally thank Mr. Imran for his unwavering support and dedication towards my business. He has gone above and beyond to ensure that I am in compliance with the authorities. Cheers to the team 🥂 God bless ❤️Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.

We prepare year end accounts for healthcare clients right across London. The reconciliations that matter are different in every case:
Accounts and returns for self-employed clinicians, with NHS pay, locum invoices and private fees reconciled and expenses fully claimed.
UDA and plan income, superannuation, lab costs and equipment finance reconciled, with accounts ready for lenders or a practice sale.
Partnership accounts, profit-share statements, drawings reconciliation and superannuation certificates prepared for every partner.
Statutory accounts with stock valuation, capital allowances and accruals, filed at Companies House and with HMRC on time.
Year end should tell you something useful, not just satisfy a filing requirement. Here is what you get:
We calculate the liability, claim capital allowances and reliefs, and file the return, telling you what to pay and when.
Accounts filed at Companies House and with HMRC ahead of deadline, in line with annual accounts requirements.
Balance sheet, profit and loss and cash flow, with NHS income, superannuation, stock and drawings all reconciled and evidenced.
If the records are behind, we bring them up to date and correct the VAT position before the accounts are prepared, not after.
We walk you through the results, compare them to last year, and agree the tax planning actions for the year ahead.
Year end is where a whole year of small record-keeping problems surface at once. These are the ones we see and fix most often:
NHS schedules never reconciled to the bank all year
Superannuation deducted at source and unaccounted for
Partner drawings and profit shares that do not balance
Stock never counted or valued on a consistent basis
Medical equipment finance and capital allowances missed
Payroll and NHS Pension figures not agreeing to accounts
Filing deadlines reached before the records are ready
Our year end team works with healthcare businesses every day, so the sector-specific reconciliations are routine rather than a discovery process:
NHS income, superannuation, UDAs and drug tariff reconciliations are familiar territory.
We act for practices and clinics across London and understand local cost pressures.
Capital allowances on equipment and fit-out identified before the accounts are finalised.
A proper review meeting in plain English, comparing this year with last and agreeing next steps.
Accounts and returns submitted well ahead of time so the tax payment is never a shock.
A single-handed locum and a multi-site clinic need different things, and are priced differently.
Year end is not why you went into healthcare. Our three-step process keeps it painless:
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.
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.
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.
Running a healthcare practice is demanding, and your time is best spent caring for patients, not worrying about financial deadlines. That’s why so many doctors, clinics, and healthcare providers choose CruseBurke. We simplify the entire year-end accounting process, ensure full HMRC compliance, and provide clear financial insights that help you plan confidently for the year ahead.

We’re an ICAEW, ACCA & AAT accredited Firm.
Take a back seat and let our expert accountants for healthcare handle everything. Here’s how easy it is to get started with us:
Reach out to us, and we’ll discuss your needs and how we can help your healthcare practice thrive.
We’ll send over a simple letter to formalise our partnership and get everything in motion.
If you're switching, we’ll take care of contacting your previous accountants to make the transition smooth.
From there, sit back and relax. We’ll manage your accounts, taxes, and everything in between, keeping your practice running smoothly.
Healthcare businesses have their own specific rules and challenges. These include NHS pension regulations, special tax relief on medical equipment or training, and a mix of private and public funding. We know these details inside and out, which a general accountant might miss.
Not at all! We help all types of businesses, big or small. We will adjust our services to suit your needs.
Yes, we can. We make sure your year-end accounts are accurate. We’ll also help you take advantage of all the allowances. This way, you pay as little tax as legally possible.
It largely depends on how quickly we get your information. If your records are organised, we can often complete the preparation phase within a few weeks.
Absolutely. Tidy bookkeeping is part of the service. We will get everything organised so your year-end accounts are accurate and compliant.
Accounts must reach Companies House within nine months of the year end, the corporation tax return within twelve months, and the tax itself is payable nine months and one day after the period end. We work to a timetable that clears all three comfortably.
Bank statements, NHS and private income schedules, purchase invoices, payroll reports, stock figures at the year end, loan and finance agreements, and last year’s accounts. If your bookkeeping is on cloud software we can usually work straight from it.
Yes. We regularly take on clients whose records are months behind. We bring the bookkeeping up to date, correct the VAT position and then prepare the accounts, so the figures are right rather than estimated.
We reconcile drawings against each partner’s entitlement, allocate the profit in line with the partnership agreement, and produce individual profit-share statements and superannuation certificates that agree to the practice accounts.
Yes. Diagnostic and treatment equipment, surgery fit-out, IT and integral features in a building often qualify. We review the fixed asset additions each year and claim full expensing or the Annual Investment Allowance where available.
Yes. We hold a review meeting to walk through the results, compare them with the previous year, identify what changed and agree the tax planning actions for the year ahead. Accounts nobody understands are of no use.
