The radical changes in society, the economy, technology and the structural reform of the NHS mean that many healthcare organisations are at a crossroads in their development. They face critical decisions in order to be sustainable, such as whether to invest or divest; or to merge, partner or stand-alone. These decisions are in addition to the day-to-day pressures on services and demands from patients, regulators and clinical standards bodies.

BDO’s Healthcare Advisory team work with work with providers in tertiary, secondary, community, primary and private healthcare settings across acute, mental and community care. 

We have developed approaches, tools and techniques that can be used to assess strategic decisions in a systematic and structured way, whilst taking account of the local needs and many local (often conflicting) views. Our experience tells us that staff need to own changes in order for them to succeed. The members of our national Healthcare Business Support team providing these services are experts in tax and medical accounting.

Our core Healthcare Advisory team includes energetic and experienced professionals with NHS backgrounds in operational management, finance, procurement, nursing, acute medicine and surgery, HR and general practice.
