Accounting and Bookkeeping Services for Private Practice Therapists
Specific Accounting Solutions for Therapists
Therapists have many unique accounting and tax needs that require industry-specific knowledge. Having accurate accounting and bookkeeping done throughout the year allows therapists to keep an eye on their numbers, plan for taxes, and ensure that no income or expenses are missed. Some industry-specific accounting and tax needs are as follows:
- Income recognition: Determining how and when you recognize income from both private billing and insurance billing.
- Qualified business income deduction (QBI): Figuring out if your business is eligible for this deduction, as well as the implications of the limitations for specified service businesses.
- Invoicing clients and patients: Ensuring that you are getting paid for your services by sending invoices directly to clients without insurance and making sure amounts billed to insurance companies are properly accounted for.
- Reasonable salary calculations for S-corporations: For therapists that are taxed as s-corporations, determining a reasonable salary for owners that is in line with other therapists in your area.
Accurate Bookkeeping for Your Practice
Therapists also have very unique bookkeeping needs. For example, they are required to keep certain documents related to income and expenses to ensure IRS compliance. Many therapists also need to invoice patients and clients directly. Allow Casey Moss Tax to provide an efficient, simple way to invoice your clients and keep your books in order. Our full-service bookkeeping package will also track your expenses for you, allowing you to focus on what you do best.
Additional Services
Therapists that operate private practices have specific accounting needs that must be addressed carefully. When operating a private practice, there are additional expenses involved that need to be accounted for correctly.
