Short, plain answers to what South African business owners ask us most.
Do you provide accounting for medical professionals, doctors and healthcare professionals?
Yes. TBL Accounting provides medical accounting for GPs, specialists, dentists and allied health professionals: medical-aid and cash billing reconciliation, VAT201 returns, payroll for practice staff, provisional and income tax, and practice structuring.
Should a doctor run a practice as a sole proprietor or a company?
It depends on income, costs and the professional rules. Our medical practice structuring guide explains what the HPCSA allows and when a company actually saves a doctor tax.
How can a practice reduce days-to-payment on medical-aid claims?
By reconciling medical-aid and cash billing closely and tracking each claim cycle, so late payers and rejected claims are chased early rather than discovered at month-end.
Can a medical practice claim tax allowances on equipment?
Capital allowances on qualifying equipment can reduce the tax bill. We work out which allowances apply as part of provisional and income tax for practitioners, alongside locum and associate structuring and tax-efficient remuneration.
