Accounting That Understands Your Practice

Healthcare accounting is complex—between OHIP billing, changing government rules, associate payments, and strict reporting requirements, managing your books can quickly become overwhelming. Your clinic needs accountants who understand how medical practices actually operate.

We help you stay compliant, organized, and financially confident. From reconciling monthly OHIP statements to handling multi-provider payroll, tracking clinic expenses, and reducing CRA/HST audit risk, our healthcare-focused approach ensures accuracy and peace of mind. With clear reporting and streamlined systems built for medical professionals, you can focus on patient care while we handle the numbers. We reconcile OHIP, WSIB, and private insurance billing statements monthly so every dollar billed is accounted for and nothing is left unclaimed.

As telemedicine expands across Ontario, we help virtual care providers understand the HST treatment of remote consultations, provincial billing codes, and cross-provincial income reporting requirements.

OHIP Billing Reconciliation

Ensure every claim is accounted for accurately and nothing falls through the cracks.

Multi-provider Payroll

Simplified associate physician compensation structures for Ontario clinics — covering fee-for-service splits, salaried associates, locum payments, and T4/T4A preparation tailored to healthcare workflows.

Expense Management

Track, categorize, and optimize clinic expenses to improve profitability and transparency.

CRA/HST Audit Risk

Stay compliant and avoid CRA audit headaches with professional guidance.

Compliance for Regulated Healthcare Practices

Healthcare practices must follow strict CPSO, CNO, MOH, and Ministry standards, making accurate reporting and compliant bookkeeping essential. We help clinics stay aligned with regulatory rules, from proper documentation to transparent income tracking. Our team also ensures compliance with CRA requirements, including HST treatment, medical corporation structures, and audit-risk areas. At year-end, we prepare clean T2 returns, T4/T4A slips, and OHIP income summaries so your practice meets every financial obligation with confidence.

College & Ministry Standards

Healthcare professionals must follow the regulations set by bodies like the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario (CPSO), the College of Nurses of Ontario (CNO), and the Ministry of Health (MOH). These organizations establish standards for practice, ensuring patient safety and high-quality care. Staying updated with these rules is essential for maintaining compliance.

CRA Rules for Medical Clinics

Medical clinics must understand CRA rules, including HST exemptions for medical services in Canada — most physician and nursing services are HST-exempt under the Excise Tax Act, while many allied health services are taxable. Misapplying HST is one of the most common CRA audit triggers for Ontario healthcare practices. These rules govern compensation structures, like salaries and dividends, and address common audit triggers such as income discrepancies. Clinics must comply to avoid penalties.

Year-End & OHIP Deliverables

At year-end, medical clinics need to prepare an income statement, T2 tax return, T4/T4A slips, and OHIP summaries. These documents ensure compliance with CRA and provincial regulations, allowing for accurate tax filings and avoiding penalties. Proper record-keeping is essential for a smooth year-end process.

Corporate Tax Filing for Healthcare

We file your medical corporation T2 return with OHIP income mapped to the correct GIFI revenue codes so CRA matching against provincial payment records does not trigger a review of your healthcare corporate tax filing.
Clinic equipment like X-ray machines (Class 12) and dental chairs (Class 8) require separate CCA pools on Schedule 8 of your healthcare T2 return — lumping them together undervalues your depreciation deduction every year.
We reconcile associate physician fee-for-service payments against T4A slips before filing your healthcare corporate tax return, ensuring the amounts reported to CRA match what each provider actually received from the clinic.
If your medical corporation pays ODA fees, CPSO annual dues, or licensing costs on behalf of the practitioner, we confirm whether these are deductible corporate expenses or shareholder benefits reportable on the T4 slip within your healthcare tax filing.
We apply the Accelerated Investment Incentive on new clinic leasehold improvements and practice management software on Schedule 8, maximizing first-year CCA deductions on your healthcare corporate tax return to reduce tax owing immediately.

Accounting & Bookkeeping for Healthcare

We set up separate revenue accounts in your healthcare bookkeeping chart of accounts for OHIP billings, WSIB claims, private insurance collections, and patient self-pay so each income stream reconciles independently every month.
For group practices, we track each associate physician's production report and collections in the healthcare accounting system so monthly compensation splits are calculated from actual data, not estimates that create year-end disputes.
We categorize pharmacy dispensing fees and drug cost of goods sold separately in your bookkeeping so your healthcare financial statements show true dispensary gross margin distinct from front-shop retail revenue.
Our healthcare bookkeeping process reconciles dental lab invoices against operatory production reports monthly, ensuring lab expenses tie to completed work and nothing is double-entered or missed in your accounts payable.
We configure your healthcare accounting in Xero or QBO to flag clinic lease payments, equipment financing, and locum fees as separate expense classes, giving you clear overhead visibility without manual spreadsheet tracking.

Corporate Tax Planning for Healthcare

RCDSO and CPSO both permit non-voting shares in your professional corporation, so we structure family members as shareholders to multiply access to the $1.25M Lifetime Capital Gains Exemption on a future healthcare practice sale through proper tax planning.
We model salary versus dividend splits for physician-owners based on your medical corporation's active income level, targeting the $500,000 Small Business Deduction threshold while maximizing personal RRSP room through healthcare corporate tax planning.
For multi-location clinic owners, we plan intercorporate management fee arrangements between the operating clinic and a holding company, ensuring fees are at fair market value and deductible on the healthcare corporate tax plan without CRA challenge.
We time major clinic equipment purchases — digital imaging systems, operatory buildouts, pharmacy automation — before fiscal year-end to trigger Accelerated CCA in the current period as part of your healthcare tax planning strategy.
Our healthcare tax planning includes annual passive investment income monitoring to keep your medical corporation below the $50,000 threshold that claws back the Small Business Deduction, preserving the 12.2% combined rate on active clinic income.

Catch-Up Corporate Tax Filing for Healthcare

If your medical corporation has two or more years of unfiled T2 returns, CRA can revoke your business number and CPSO or RCDSO may question your Certificate of Authorization — we file all outstanding healthcare catch-up returns and negotiate penalty relief.
We reconstruct missing clinic revenue from OHIP remittance statements and bank deposits when your healthcare catch-up corporate tax filing requires financials for years where bookkeeping was never completed.
For dental corps that fell behind after a change of associate dentists, we rebuild production and collections data from practice management software exports to prepare accurate catch-up T2 returns for every unfiled healthcare corporate tax year.
Late healthcare corporate tax filing penalties compound at 5% plus 1% per month on unpaid tax — our catch-up filing service prioritizes the oldest year first to stop this accumulation and restore your medical corporation to CRA compliance.
We review unfiled periods for missed CCA deductions on clinic equipment and leasehold improvements, ensuring your healthcare catch-up T2 returns claim every legitimate deduction rather than just reporting income and paying maximum tax.

GST/HST Filing for Healthcare

Most physician and nursing services are HST-exempt under the Excise Tax Act, but allied health services like physiotherapy assessments billed privately are taxable — we separate these on your healthcare GST/HST return to avoid CRA reassessments.
Pharmacy businesses must split HST-exempt prescription drug sales from taxable front-shop retail and dispensing fee income on their healthcare GST/HST return — incorrect coding results in over-remittance or CRA audit exposure.
Dental practices collecting HST on cosmetic services like teeth whitening must file those amounts separately from exempt general care revenue on the healthcare GST/HST return, and we ensure input tax credits are allocated proportionally.
We claim ITCs on taxable clinic overhead — office supplies, practice management software subscriptions, cleaning services, and non-exempt equipment maintenance — that many healthcare practices miss on their GST/HST return every filing period.
For clinics near the $30,000 threshold, we monitor allied health revenue streams to determine the exact quarter your healthcare practice must register for GST/HST, preventing retroactive assessment of uncollected tax plus interest.

Corporate Tax Cleanup for Healthcare

We correct misclassified clinic equipment CCA pools where previous accountants grouped dental chairs (Class 8) with digital X-ray systems (Class 12), recovering years of lost depreciation deductions on your healthcare corporate tax cleanup.
Our healthcare tax cleanup reconciles historical OHIP income against T2 reported revenue for each prior year, identifying discrepancies that could trigger CRA matching reviews and correcting them through amended corporate tax filings.
For medical corporations where associate physician payments were inconsistently reported as salary versus contractor fees, we reclassify and amend T4/T4A slips as part of your healthcare corporate tax cleanup to match CRA records.
We rebuild shareholder loan accounts on Schedule 50 for healthcare professional corporations where owner draws, personal expenses, and clinic reimbursements were never separated — preventing ITA subsection 15(2) income inclusions on cleanup.
Our healthcare corporate tax cleanup fixes retained earnings carryforward errors caused by changing accountants, ensuring your medical corporation's Schedule 100 balance sheet matches the actual equity position for lenders and CPSO compliance reviews.

CRA Audit Resolution for Healthcare

Healthcare practices face frequent CRA audits on associate physician classification — we defend your T4A independent contractor treatment using proper clinic engagement agreements and the control-test documentation CRA requires for healthcare audit resolution.
When CRA questions OHIP revenue discrepancies between your medical corporation's T2 return and provincial payment data, we reconcile every remittance statement and prepare a documented response as part of your healthcare CRA audit resolution.
We respond to CRA requests for clinic payroll records by presenting PD7A reconciliations, T4 summaries, and locum payment documentation in an organized audit package that demonstrates full healthcare payroll compliance.
For dental corps flagged on HST treatment of mixed-supply services, we prepare CRA audit resolution submissions showing the proper split between exempt patient care and taxable cosmetic procedures using operatory revenue reports.
We submit RC4288 Taxpayer Relief requests as part of healthcare CRA audit resolution when penalties resulted from a previous accountant's errors on your medical corporation's filings, documenting the circumstances to maximize cancellation.

Trust & Estate Tax Returns (T3) for Healthcare

A family trust holding non-voting shares of your medical corporation distributes dividends to adult beneficiaries at their lower marginal rates, and we prepare the T3 trust return with proper healthcare income allocations and T3 slips each year.
When a physician passes away, we coordinate the final T1 return with the T3 estate return to ensure OHIP receivables and accrued clinic income are reported in the correct filing period, preventing double taxation on healthcare estate income.
We prepare T3 returns for inter vivos trusts established during healthcare succession planning, reporting investment income earned on funds transferred from the medical corporation while maintaining CRA compliance on all trust distributions.
For estates holding shares in a dental corp or medical corporation, we calculate the deemed disposition at fair market value on death and apply the spousal rollover under ITA subsection 70(6) where eligible to defer capital gains on the healthcare T3 return.
We file T3 slips for every beneficiary receiving distributions from a healthcare estate trust, meeting the CRA deadline to avoid the $25 per day per slip penalty and ensuring each family member reports their allocated income correctly.

Incorporation Services for Healthcare

Ontario physicians must incorporate as a Professional Corporation under CPSO regulations with a valid Certificate of Authorization before billing OHIP through the medical corp — we handle the full healthcare incorporation process including NUANS search and articles of incorporation.
Dental professionals require RCDSO approval and a Certificate of Authorization before operating through a dental corp — we coordinate healthcare incorporation filing with the regulatory application so both are completed without delays.
We design a multi-class share structure at healthcare incorporation — common voting shares for the practitioner, non-voting shares for family members — to support future income splitting and estate planning without requiring costly articles of amendment later.
As part of healthcare incorporation, we register your medical corporation for a CRA Business Number, GST/HST account (if applicable based on service mix), and payroll account so your clinic is fully operational and CRA-compliant from the first billing day.
We prepare the opening balance sheet and minute book for your healthcare professional corporation, including initial director resolutions, share certificates, and shareholder register, so your medical corp passes CPSO, RCDSO, or CNO compliance review immediately.
