Healthcare Accounting: Achieve Financial & Operational Health

Healthcare organizations face complex financial and accounting issues. Robert Hall & Associates has the background and knowledge to help you manage the financial, operational, and organizational demands of running a medical practice in today’s constantly changing environment. Our health care accountants will analyze your unique business needs and offer sound account management and tax preparation practices that allow you to spend less time buried in financial documents and more time where it really matters- with the patients.

Our healthcare clients include:

  • Physicians
  • Nurses
  • Hospitals
  • Long-term care facilities
  • Multi-specialty practices
  • Dentists

Some important tax tips for healthcare professionals include:

  • Initial Education: The high cost of your healthcare education may qualify you for an American Opportunity Credit (AOC), which allows a credit of up to $2,500 per year per student during the first four years of a degree program. If you don’t qualify for the AOC, you may qualify for the Lifetime Learning Credit, which allows a credit of 20% of tuition and fees paid to attend a college or trade school up to $2,000. If neither credit applies, then it is possible the course qualifies for the tuition and fees deduction.
  • Continuing Education: Certified professionals may be able to deduct work-related courses or seminars if they meet certain requirements. Continuing Medical Education (CME) tuition, lab fees, course materials, CPR certification and re-certification and certain travel costs can all be deducted. Courses that are part of a program that will qualify you for a new role, or that help you meet the minimum education requirements for your program, are not deductible.
  • Work-Related Expenses: Under the 2018 Tax Reform, W2 wage earners are no longer able to itemize their non-reimbursed business expenses on their federal tax return. Contact your tax advisor to see how this affects your tax return.
