It depends on your circumstances. A doctor on a straightforward salaried contract with no private income may manage Self Assessment without help, though professional expenses and pension considerations still need care. Where you have private fees, locum income, consultancy work, a practice, a partnership or a limited company, the reporting and structuring decisions become more involved, and an accountant can help ensure nothing is missed and the right expenses are claimed.
NHS pay is normally taxed through PAYE, with tax already deducted at source. Private fees, locum earnings and consultancy income are generally reported through Self Assessment, and the tax already paid on your NHS income is accounted for through the return. The result is that both streams are reflected in one place, which is why accurate records for each income source matter.
Common examples include medical indemnity cover, professional body subscriptions, required professional development and training, specialist equipment, and travel between separate work locations. Whether a specific cost is allowable depends on factors such as whether you are employed or self-employed, whether the expense is wholly and exclusively for the work, and whether it has already been reimbursed. It is worth checking individual items rather than assuming.
Locum work usually sits closer to self-employment, so you will typically need to record income from each engagement, keep invoices, track expenses such as travel, indemnity and equipment, and set aside money for tax as you go. If you work through an agency or umbrella arrangement, the reporting route can differ, so it helps to confirm your status before the year ends rather than after.
Not automatically. Incorporation can suit some doctors with substantial private or consultancy income, but it brings additional obligations including company accounts, Corporation Tax, payroll and possibly VAT. It can also affect how you take money out of the business and how your pension position is viewed. The right answer depends on your income level, plans and personal circumstances, so it is a decision to review properly rather than on general principle.
These are among the more commonly claimed professional expenses for doctors, and they can be significant. The exact treatment depends on whether the cost relates to your employment, your self-employed work, or both, and whether it has been reimbursed by an employer. Where a cost spans employed and self-employed work, it may need to be apportioned.
Yes. Accounting work is largely digital, so records, documents and correspondence can be handled securely online, with calls or video meetings when a discussion is needed. Many doctors prefer this because it fits around clinical schedules. The practical requirement is that records are shared promptly so returns and accounts can be prepared accurately.
Usually less than people expect. We would confirm the scope of what you need, contact your existing accountant for the relevant records and professional clearance, and review what has been filed to date. From there we take over the relevant deadlines. It helps to start the process before a filing deadline is close, so there is time to review rather than rush.
