Clinics & Healthcare accounting — common questions.

How should panel and insurer claims be recorded?

Record service revenue and the payer receivable, then clear it on remittance so rejected claims, deductions and slow collections remain visible.

Are locum doctors employees or contractors?

It depends on the actual arrangement, including control, integration and contractual responsibilities, not the label alone.

Can you report profitability by clinic outlet?

Yes. Revenue, practitioner cost, staff cost, rent, consumables and shared overhead can show outlet contribution and company performance.

How is medical equipment treated for tax?

Larger equipment is usually capitalised, with qualifying costs considered for capital allowances based on the asset and use.
