Are South Africa’s Private Medical Practices Charging Enough to Be Profitable?

If you're a doctor, practice manager, or healthcare entrepreneur, this question isn't just academic, it's existential.

In my latest article, I unpack the real cost of running a private practice, why “100% scheme rate” is often a myth, and how smart pricing, billing bureaus, and patient communication can make or break your margins.

🔎 75% of South African businesses don’t survive past year three.

The reason? It’s not lack of talent. It’s not even lack of clients.

It’s cash flow — or more accurately, the lack of it.

In our latest article, we unpack the strategies that help professional practices and service firms stay liquid during lean months — and why mastering cash flow is the difference between surviving and thriving.

💡 Whether you're a legal practice, marketing agency, or consultancy, lean months are inevitable. But they don’t have to be fatal.

✅ Learn how to:
Forecast and plan for seasonal dips
Build a cash reserve without breaking your budget
Get paid faster and pay smarter
Use financing strategically (not desperately)
Strengthen your financial oversight

📈 At Nuvia, we simplify your business — and that starts with helping you manage your money like a CFO.

🧾 Can I Deduct This?

If you’ve ever asked that question while running your business, this newsletter is for you.

From home office claims to client lunches, travel costs to software subscriptions—knowing what you can legally deduct (and what you can’t) could save you thousands.

💡 I break it down in plain English. No jargon. No fluff. Just practical advice for South African professionals, consultants, and agency owners who want to keep more of what they earn—and stay compliant.

⚠️ Bonus tip: Claiming a home office deduction? It might affect your capital gains tax exemption when you sell your home. I explain how.



A Tax Guide for South African Professionals Who Want to Keep More of What They Earn Let’s face it—tax isn’t sexy. But paying more than you legally have to? That’s just bad business.

Running your practice or business without real-time financial data is like flying blind in a storm.

Outdated accounting software doesn’t just slow you down—it hides the truth.

You miss warning signs, delay decisions, and risk cash flow chaos.

Let’s be honest. Most professionals didn’t become doctors, lawyers, consultants, or creatives to spend their evenings reconciling spreadsheets.
