What Does Primary Care Include?
A primary care network comprises of multiple GP practices, who work in coordination and with the support of nurses and healthcare staff. The main objective is to offer integrated medical services at the local level.
Primary healthcare services have been an important corollary of the NHS since policy changes in 2019. These networks have to maintain accounts and submit a report on funds. The HMRC requires details of surplus funds to be provided by March 31st every year, along with accounts, tax liabilities and surplus funds of each GP practice. A primary care network also has to deal with total NHS rewards and VAT planning.
Issues in relation to VAT exist within all structures but, in particular, in the model of a standalone business. However, these can be overcome with VAT planning and we can assist PCNs in structuring themselves optimally for VAT.
Extensive knowledge of medical accounting practices allows Ramsay Brown to efficiently complete these for primary healthcare services.
