The Finance Team is headed by Siva Kumaran and supported by Jeremy Wyatt, Pat Manser, Eva Lorincz and Partha Deb.
We are responsible for translating Your Healthcare business strategy into financial data and presenting the budget that serves the organisation’s financial objectives in keeping with our role as a health and social care provider.
The team supports Your Healthcare staff on all aspects of finance and is responsible for the delivery of reliable and robust financial information for the relevant budget holders on a monthly, timely basis.
Commitment to Internal Customers
We pride ourselves on the accurate recording of all organisation financial transactions and the provision of financial information to budget holders on a regular and timely basis.
We produce medium to long term financial plans and forecasts for the organisation. In the process we aim to maintain integrity and transparency and ensure our financial assumptions and procedures are adhered to and understood by all staff of the organisation.
Commitment to External Customers
We aim to provide as much information as possible in our sales invoices and expect our customers to pay us on time in accordance with agreed terms and conditions.
Finance is responsible for raising income invoices and ensuring that they are paid thereby underpinning the organisation’s financial success.
Commitment to ‘Mutuals in Health’
Working as a public sector ‘mutual’ with a mandate to reinvest any surplus into where it matters most, our services, this works in two ways;
1 For Your Healthcare - We work in partnership with NHS Shared Business Services (SBS) to deliver economies of scale for our transactions such as Accounts Payable; Accounts Receivable and related business transactions and recording of transactions.
2 For other Public Sector Mutuals – Using this expertise and in developing this model of working as a mutual ourselves, we are able o offer best practice financial support to other similar mutual organisations.

Commitment to Suppliers
We aim to pay all our suppliers invoices promptly provided the invoices are valid, goods or services are delivered as agreed and the charges are as per our order or agreed price.
Since we were established as a social enterprise in August 2010, our track record shows that we have honoured the above commitment to our suppliers and we are proud to be ranked No1 amongst our SBS peers for paying suppliers promptly. We aim to maintain and continue this record.
All invoice payment queries are handled by NHS Shared Business Services who can be contacted on 0303 123 1177.
We produce annual accounts and provide training to our budget holders in understanding the budget statements and support the awareness of Standing Financial Instructions & Governance and all other policies of the organisation relevant to the financial transactions.
