Payroll & Compliance Services for Healthcare Practices

Running payroll for a healthcare practice isn’t like running payroll for a typical business. You’re managing:

Multiple pay structures

  • Dentists and associates (commission-based, production vs. collection splits)
  • Hygienists (hourly or salary)
  • Dental assistants (hourly, overtime calculations)
  • Administrative staff (salary or hourly)
  • Front desk reception (part-time, full-time, varying schedules)

Different compensation models

  • Some employees get base salary + bonuses
  • Associates get percentage splits (35%, 40%, 45%)
  • Lab costs deducted from associate pay
  • Overtime, statutory holidays, vacation pay calculations
  • Benefits administration (group insurance, RRSP matching)

Compliance requirements

  • T4 and ROE preparation
  • CRA remittances (income tax, CPP, EI)
  • Provincial payroll regulations (different in BC, AB, ON, etc.)
  • WCB reporting and premiums
  • Employment standards compliance
  • Vacation pay accrual tracking

One mistake? Your team loses trust. CRA penalties hit. Morale drops.

That’s where we come in.
