Not every doctor needs an accountant, but many find one helpful if they have multiple income sources, self-employment income, or complex tax affairs. A doctor with only a single salaried NHS role may have simpler tax needs, while locum doctors, private practitioners, consultants and those with NHS and private income often benefit from professional support with Self Assessment, allowable expenses and record keeping.
If you receive income that is not taxed through PAYE, such as private medical fees, locum income or consultancy earnings, you will usually need to report it through Self Assessment. NHS salary is normally taxed through PAYE, but you still need to declare it on your tax return. Keeping separate records for each income source makes it easier to complete your return accurately and claim allowable expenses.
Locum doctors may be able to claim expenses such as medical indemnity insurance, professional subscriptions, relevant training and professional development, and travel to temporary workplaces. The rules depend on your circumstances, including whether you are employed or self-employed, and how you structure your work. Good record keeping is essential, and it is worth checking which costs qualify before claiming them.
Medical indemnity insurance and professional subscriptions, such as those paid to a medical royal college or the General Medical Council, are often allowable expenses for doctors if they are required for your work. However, the tax treatment can depend on your employment status and whether the cost is met by you or your employer. We can help you understand what you can claim based on your circumstances.
Whether a limited company is appropriate depends on your income sources, working arrangements and long-term plans. Some doctors with significant private or locum income may consider a limited company, while others may find sole trader or partnership arrangements more suitable. There is no one-size-fits-all answer, so it is important to look at your individual circumstances before deciding.
NHS pension contributions are generally deducted from your pay, while private pension contributions may attract tax relief subject to the rules in place at the time. Doctors with high income may need to consider annual allowance charges and how pension contributions interact with their overall tax position. Pension rules can change, so personalised advice is important.
Yes, we can support doctors with bookkeeping, VAT and financial reporting for a private practice where relevant. Whether you need to register for VAT depends on your turnover and the services you provide. We can help you keep accurate records, understand your VAT obligations, and prepare the information needed for your annual accounts and tax returns.
Changing accountants is usually straightforward. Once you decide to move, we can help coordinate the handover with your existing accountant, request any relevant records, and review your accounting and tax position. You do not need to wait until the end of the tax year to make a change, although timing can affect certain deadlines. We can talk you through the process.
