Your challenges

What’s holding you back?

You may not always have time to stop and reflect, but these challenges are common:

I’m not sure our practice finances are set up efficiently.

I’m not sure we’re maximising our income with the available resources.

Our systems are outdated, and reporting takes too long.

We’re profitable, but cash flow feels unpredictable.

I’m not confident we’re claiming all the allowances available to us.

I’m not sure how we’re doing in comparison to other practices.

These aren’t just day-to-day headaches, they’re signs

your practice

could get more from its advisers.

Whether you’re a GP, consultant or healthcare provider, we’ll give you the clarity and support to plan ahead with confidence.

Case Study

Coventry and Rugby GP Alliance - Accountancy Services

Coventry and Rugby GP Alliance, a not-for-profit federation of GP Practices, serves a population of approximately 500,000. Their mission is to support general practice by providing a range of at-scale primary care services commissioned by local NHS bodies. They also directly operate two large practices. The alliance faced challenges with their previous accountancy firm, which lacked specific expertise in the healthcare sector. By partnering with Ballards, they gained access to a team with deep knowledge of healthcare, offering ancillary support services like recruitment, IT, and financial advice, ensuring efficient and effective business operations.
