Accounting & tax support for Healthcare
Compliance-first accounting for clinics and healthcare providers navigating VAT exemptions and sector regulation.
Industry challenges
Distinguishing VAT-exempt healthcare services from taxable ancillary services (e.g. cosmetic procedures, retail products sold in-clinic), and managing insurance-company receivables.
How Imperium helps
We set up chart-of-accounts structures that separate exempt and taxable revenue streams from day one, avoiding a messy reclassification exercise later.
Key considerations
Accounting considerations
Insurance receivable aging (claims can take months to settle), and correctly categorising mixed exempt/taxable service lines.
Tax considerations
Certain healthcare services are VAT-exempt in the UAE, but not all clinic revenue automatically qualifies — cosmetic and non-essential services are frequently taxable even within a healthcare business.
Common financial problems
Insurance claim receivables ageing without active follow-up, and VAT being applied incorrectly across mixed exempt/taxable service lines.
