Medical sector finance

GP practice finance and medical practice funding

GP partnerships, private clinics and consultant practices all run on timing that rarely matches their outgoings. We arrange everyday funding that smooths NHS payment gaps, pays for equipment and refurbishment, and covers practice and personal tax bills.

Facilities from £5,000 to £250,000+ over 3 to 72 months. No upfront fees — we are paid by the lender.

What we fund

How we fund medical & gp practices

Practical, everyday funding — not complicated structures. If it keeps the practice running or helps it grow, there is usually a lender for it.

Working capital against NHS receivables

Bridge the gap between delivering care and being paid for it.

Medical equipment and imaging

Fund diagnostic kit, minor-surgery equipment and clinical IT over a sensible term.

Refurbishment and CQC works

Cover premises improvements, accessibility works and compliance-driven upgrades.

Practice and personal tax bills

Spread corporation tax, VAT and partners' self-assessment bills across monthly payments.

Practice management systems

Fund clinical software, patient portals, telephony upgrades and cyber security work.

Hiring and locum cover

Fund additional clinicians, practice managers and locum cover during busy or short-staffed periods.

Why Practice Capital

Where the high street stops, we start

Mainstream banks tend to treat a medical practice like any other small business. The lenders we work with recognise the reliability of NHS and private clinical income, and price accordingly — with decisions that arrive in days.

FAQs

Medical & GP finance questions, answered

Can a GP partnership borrow for tax bills?
Yes. Funding partners' self-assessment and the practice's own tax and VAT liabilities is one of the most common requests we handle, usually repaid over six to twelve months.
Do lenders treat NHS income favourably?
Generally yes. Predictable NHS income is viewed as strong evidence of affordability, which often improves the terms available compared with a comparable non-clinical business.
Can private clinics access the same funding?
Yes. Private clinics, consultant practices and mixed NHS-private models are all fundable — lenders assess the income mix rather than the label.
How much does it cost to use a broker?
Nothing. We are paid a commission by the lender, so there are no upfront fees to you.
