Errors in the accounting of the clinic, office or in the entry of appointments can bring a lot of damage to doctors, dentists and other health professionals. Lamarque Santos, partner at Conta Medical, explains the main ones and how to act to avoid them.
One of the most common problems that unbalance the financial health of an office/clinic or self-employed professional is the lack of knowledge of the correct and most profitable tax framework. Not knowing which is the best taxation regime is harmful, because it determines which taxes must be paid for the activities carried out. It also has an impact on Income Tax (IRPJ) and Social Contribution on Net Income (CSLL) calculations.
In addition to weighing on your pocket, inadequate framing can cause problems such as assessments, fines and other penalties. Lamarque Santos warns that it is also common for these professionals not to treat corporate organization correctly.
If the work model involves the partnership of one or more professionals, it is necessary to establish, in addition to the social contract, a corporate agreement, and provide the due legal backing for the payment of capital (delivery of the values promised in the issuance of the social contract), avoiding many inconveniences.
The champion of errors – and one of the most headaches for health professionals – is mixing expenses of the individual (the professional) with those of the legal entity (office/clinic).
Separating legal personality from physics may seem difficult and confusing, but it is extremely necessary. In addition to complying with tax legislation, it allows for more accurate control of the company’s financial results, ensuring more effective tax planning for tax reduction.
Santos explains that the support of an accounting firm specializing in the health area helps “to better mitigate tax risks, which go beyond tax relief and demand compliance with ancillary obligations to the Treasury”.
The Conta Medical executive also informs that analytical accounting, carried out in an active and preventive way, based on results and with expertise in the health segment, helps in decision-making “bringing real financial results, reducing costs and, many times, increasing profit from service provision.
