Accounting for physiotherapists in Kitchener-Waterloo

What we take off a Kitchener-Waterloo physiotherapy clinic’s plate
Insurer and patient billing
Insurer claims and patient payments are reconciled so your books reflect what you actually earned.
Employees or contractors?
Whether your practitioners are employees or contractors changes how they're paid and reported; we handle each correctly.
Growing to a second location
Multi-location books are tracked distinctly and rolled up for the corporation, so growth doesn't muddy your numbers.
Why Kitchener-Waterloo physiotherapists choose taxifi
Waterloo Region is three cities behaving like one market, with the tech corridor's growth spilling into every local trade and service business around it. New buildings, new households, and new companies all need local businesses — and local businesses that know their numbers grow with the region instead of just getting busier.
Layer onto that what physiotherapists deal with everywhere — HST-exempt billings on the revenue side and unrecoverable HST buried in almost every clinic cost — and the case for taxifi is simple: books kept current daily by AI, filings reviewed and signed by a Canadian accountant, and the clinic's real economics are visible every month, not once a year.
Common questions
Should I incorporate my physiotherapy practice?
Ontario health professionals can practise through a professional corporation, with College rules about who may hold shares — and whether incorporation actually saves you money depends on how much the clinic earns beyond what you need to live on. It is a calculation from your real numbers, not a rule of thumb, and it is included in the advisory side of taxifi's service.
Do physiotherapists charge HST in Ontario?
Physiotherapy services provided to individuals are generally HST-exempt — but exempt cuts both ways: you don't charge HST on treatment, and you also can't claim input tax credits on most of what the clinic buys, so the HST on rent, equipment, and supplies is a real cost of running a Kitchener-Waterloo clinic. Books that understand that produce honest margins; books that don't quietly overstate them.
Do you need me to come to an office in Kitchener or Waterloo?
No — there is no office visit anywhere in the process. Bank feeds are read daily, documents move through the portal, questions get answered by a person, and the accountant reviews and signs everything remotely. It works the same in Kitchener, Waterloo, or Cambridge.
I already have a bookkeeper or accountant in Kitchener-Waterloo. How hard is switching?
The switch is free: we deal with your current provider directly, collect your file and history, and take over the monthly work. Any catch-up is scoped and priced before you commit. Your part is about an hour, and mid-year is fine.
