Why Healthcare Professionals Need Specialist Accountants
Generic accountants miss the nuances of healthcare income. We specialize in the complex tax situations facing dentists, GPs, locums, care agencies, and medical practice owners.
NHS Contract Complexity
NHS pension deductions, contract income reporting, and mixed NHS/private work create unique accounting challenges. From April 2025, new NHS contract deduction rules require specialist knowledge to avoid HMRC penalties and ensure proper tax treatment of your earnings.
Associate Income Optimization
Associate dentists and GP partners face complex income structures with profit share calculations, goodwill considerations, and dual employment status. 90% benefit from specialist accounting that maximizes tax efficiency through proper structure analysis and deduction optimization.
Care Agency Compliance
Domiciliary care agencies face unique challenges: CQC registration costs, worker classification (employed vs self-employed carers), complex payroll with unsociable hours premiums, mileage and travel time accounting, and CareQuality Commission fee planning. Live-in care agencies need specialist VAT and employment law knowledge.
Practice Growth Challenges
Expanding from solo practitioner to employing associates or staff involves VAT registration decisions, payroll complexities, CQC compliance costs, and partnership taxation. Growing healthcare practices need strategic financial guidance, not just compliance accounting.

Dr. Sarah's Story: From Overwhelmed to Optimized
๐ The Problem
Dr. Sarah Chen, a GP partner in Camden with three NHS sessions plus private work, was using a high-street accountant who treated her like any other business. Her previous accountant didn't understand NHS pension contributions, misclassified some of her private income, and she was constantly worried about HMRC penalties.
When her practice decided to expand and employ two associate GPs, her accountant couldn't advise on partnership tax implications or VAT registration timing. Sarah was spending 12+ hours monthly wrestling with accounting spreadsheets instead of seeing patients.
โ The LOYALS Solution

"LOYALS understands healthcare in a way my previous accountant never did. They speak my language, understand NHS contracts, and actually save me money while giving me peace of mind. Best decision I made for my practice."
โ ๏ธ April 2025: Critical NHS Contract Changes You Need To Know
From April 2025, NHS England is implementing significant changes to how contractor deductions are processed and reported. These changes affect:
- GP Partners & Locums: New reporting requirements for NHS pension contributions and superannuation deductions
- Dental Practitioners: Changes to NHS contract income classification and deduction processing timelines
- Consultant Sessions: Updated treatment of Part 11A sessions and pay award backdating
- All Healthcare Contractors: Modified self-assessment reporting requirements to align with new NHS systems
What This Means: If your accountant doesn't understand these changes, you risk HMRC penalties, incorrect tax returns, and overpaying tax. LOYALS is fully briefed on April 2025 changes and will ensure your accounts reflect the new requirements correctly.
