Frequently Asked Questions?
Questions healthcare professionals ask us
How can Pace Advisory help with the financial management of my medical practice?
Our expertise in the healthcare sector allows us to offer specialised financial management solutions that include optimising your tax benefits, streamlining payroll processes, ensuring accurate bookkeeping, and providing strategic business advisory services to enhance your practice’s profitability and efficiency.
What makes Pace Advisory Group different from other accounting firms?
Unlike generalist accounting firms, we specialise in serving medical practitioners and healthcare professionals. This focus has given us a deep understanding of the unique financial challenges and opportunities within the healthcare industry, enabling us to provide highly relevant and effective solutions.
Can you assist with tax issues specific to the healthcare industry?
Absolutely. Our team is well-versed in the nuances of tax regulations affecting the healthcare sector. We can help with industry-specific issues such as medical equipment depreciation, insurance deductions, and other tax-efficient strategies for medical professionals.
Do you provide support for new medical practices just starting out?
Yes, we offer tailored services to support new medical practices, including entity formation advice, financial forecasting, compliance setup, and ongoing management to ensure a solid foundation for your new venture.
How does your firm ensure confidentiality and security of financial information?
We adhere to strict confidentiality protocols and use secure systems to protect your financial data. Our commitment to privacy and security is integral to our service delivery, ensuring that all client information is handled with the utmost discretion and security.
How can I get started with your services?
To begin, simply contact us through our website or call our Melbourne office. We will schedule an initial consultation to discuss your needs and how we can best serve your practice.
What structure should I use for my medical practice?
The right structure depends on your income, circumstances, and goals. Most healthcare professionals benefit from either a company, discretionary trust, or a combination. We’ll analyse your situation and recommend the most tax-effective structure during your free consultation.
Should I use a contractor arrangement or employee staff?
This is one of the highest-risk areas for healthcare practices — the ATO scrutinises contractor arrangements closely. We review your existing arrangements and ensure they meet the genuine independent contractor tests, protecting you from payroll tax and super liability.
How do I value a medical practice I want to buy into?
Medical practice valuations use adjusted EBITDA multiples, patient goodwill, physical asset values, and location factors. We conduct independent valuations and due diligence to ensure you pay a fair price and structure the purchase tax-effectively.
Are GP servcices GST-free?What about allied health?
Most medical services by GPs and specialists are GST-free under Australian law. However, cosmetic procedures, certain allied health services and non-clinical services may attract GST. Getting this right is critical, and we advise on the exact treatment for every service type your practice provides.
Do you work with NDIS providers and bulk billing practices?
Yes — we work with bulk-billing GP clinics, private billing specialists, NDIS registered providers, and mixed-billing practices. Each model has different cash flow, compliance and structural considerations that we understand well
