Event / Pre-accounts planning 2023
About this event
This two day conference assisted all those involved in the planning and delivery of the annual accounts process for the year 2022/23. Through a mix of online plenary and workshop sessions, the event was an excellent opportunity for discussions, networking and for delegates to feedback to colleagues from NHS England and the DHSC.
This event provided the opportunity to discuss changes to accounting and reporting requirements and to raise any issues/questions with auditors, NHS England, and Department of Health and Social Care colleagues. There was also the opportunity to discuss issues that are expected to arise in this year's accounts preparation and audit process, as well as to hear about other developments and best practice in financial reporting.
As in previous years, this session will provide a strategic overview on behalf of the department of health and social care. Jennifer and Manuela will explore the importance of producing good quality accounts, how these feed into the national picture, including their effect on new funding streams and the autumn statement.
They will also provide feedback on the group accounts, pulling out themes at this level as well as discussing the key challenges ahead for year 23/24, including what to expect in terms of consolidation schedules.
This session will provide an update on financial reporting standards and public sector reporting standards that will affect NHS bodies in 2022/23 and future years. The session will also cover changes to auditing standards and regulation that may affect the audit of NHS bodies.
This session will set out what the Tax Centre of Excellence does and how it can help NHS bodies. The session will also highlight current key taxation issues for NHS bodies.
Making time matter with intelligent automation
Many fear the introduction of robotic process automation as something that could mean job losses and replace the need for human workers in financial departments.
In this session, Darren will put your mind at ease and will discuss how 'virtual workers' can be deployed non-disruptively into business operations and can be utilised to digitise many manual processes
By using robotic process automation, Darren and his team have been able to support their finance team to work faster and smarter in the challenging climate we currently face.
