Outsourced Finance & Healthcare Payroll

Reclaiming your time for patient care

The administrative burden of running a modern medical practice is relentless. Managing locum invoices, chasing PCN reimbursements, and processing complex staff payroll can distract the management team from their core objective: patient outcomes.

Our outsourced finance and payroll solution is built specifically for the healthcare sector. We don't just "do the books"; we provide a dedicated "Virtual Finance Office" that handles the day-to-day heavy lifting while providing the partners with high-level financial oversight.

Specialist healthcare payroll

Medical payroll is not standard payroll. It requires an intimate knowledge of:

NHS Pension Integration

We handle the complex Monthly Data Collection (MDC) and ensure that both employee and employer contributions are accurately calculated and paid.

Agenda for Change

We manage the complexities of NHS pay scales, annual increments, and the specific terms and conditions of GP staff contracts.

Locum and Sessional Staff

Managing the varying tax treatments and pension requirements for temporary clinical staff.

The virtual finance function

By outsourcing your finance function to us, you gain access to:

Bookkeeping

Timely production of year‑end financial statements: with bookkeeping up to date, we can prepare your financial statements swiftly after receipt of relevant year‑end information from commissioners.

Real-time Management Accounts

No more waiting for the year-end. You see your practice’s performance every quarter (or month if required), allowing for proactive decision-making.

Automated Creditor Management

We handle your supplier payments and ensure that all reimbursements from the ICS and PCN are tracked and received.
