Frequently asked questions
What does a healthcare accountant do for medical practices?
A healthcare accountant manages tax returns, VAT, payroll and financial statements tailored to medical practices. They ensure compliance with HMRC rules, advise on pension and associate structures, and help maximise allowable expenses. Their sector knowledge means they understand NHS income, private fees and equipment capital allowances, reducing risk and saving time for practitioners.
Why should I choose an ACCA or ICAEW qualified accountant?
ACCA and ICAEW qualifications guarantee high professional standards, ethics and technical expertise. Members must complete ongoing training, so they stay current with tax law and HMRC requirements. Choosing a regulated accountant gives you confidence that your tax returns, VAT submissions and Corporation Tax filings are accurate and compliant.
How can an accountant help with HMRC investigations?
A qualified accountant can represent you during HMRC enquiries, prepare necessary documentation and negotiate on your behalf. They ensure all communications are handled correctly and deadlines met. Their experience reduces stress and helps resolve issues efficiently, often minimising penalties. It is advisable to involve them as soon as HMRC contacts you.
What VAT rules apply to healthcare services?
Many healthcare services are exempt from VAT, but cosmetic procedures, some equipment sales and dispensing may be taxable. A specialist accountant can review your activities to determine correct VAT treatment, handle registration if needed and ensure Making Tax Digital compliance. This prevents unexpected liabilities and keeps your business VAT-efficient.
Do I need an accountant for Self Assessment as a locum?
Yes, locum doctors and dentists often have complex tax affairs, including expenses, IR35 and pension contributions. An accountant ensures accurate Self Assessment returns, claims allowable expenses and advises on tax payments. They help avoid penalties and can identify savings, making their fees cost-effective for locum professionals.
