Not every doctor does. If your only income is a straightforward salaried NHS post with no additional work, your tax is usually handled through PAYE, though it can still be worth checking whether expenses such as professional subscriptions or indemnity cover are being claimed. An accountant becomes far more valuable once you have self-employed income, multiple roles, a partnership or a limited company, because the reporting is more involved and the tax treatment less obvious. Many doctors also value the reassurance that comes with having their position reviewed properly.
A salaried NHS role alone does not automatically mean you must file a return. However, a return is often required if you also have self-employed income from locum work, private practice or consultancy, if you receive significant untaxed income, or if HMRC has issued you with a notice to file. The position depends on your total income and its sources, so it is worth reviewing rather than assuming either way.
NHS employment income is taxed through PAYE, whereas private practice and locum fees are usually self-employed income reported on a tax return, with tax and National Insurance calculated through Self Assessment. Because expenses can relate to both streams, they often need to be apportioned on a reasonable basis. Keeping the two streams separately recorded from the outset makes the reporting far cleaner.
It depends on whether the cost relates to employed or self-employed work. Professional subscriptions, medical indemnity insurance, specialist training and professional development, equipment and travel can all be relevant in the right circumstances, but the tests are not identical for the two categories, and some costs are capital rather than revenue in nature. Records and receipts are essential, and we advise on what can properly be claimed for your particular mix of work.
It can. Each engagement may generate its own income records, and travel between sites, varying hours and irregular payment dates all need to be tracked accurately across the tax year. Where you work through an agency, the way income is paid and reported may differ again. Good bookkeeping from the start keeps the return straightforward and avoids arguments later.
There is no single answer, and it depends on your level of private income, whether you also have NHS employment, how profits are extracted, and your longer-term plans. Incorporation can suit some doctors and not others, and the tax and administrative consequences differ in each case. We look at your specific circumstances and explain the trade-offs before you decide.
NHS pension contributions reduce your taxable pay, and the pension also affects annual allowance calculations, which can become relevant when your income is high or fluctuates between years. Because this interacts with your overall income, it is best considered alongside your tax return rather than in isolation. We take pension considerations into account when reviewing your position.
Yes to both. Much of the work can be handled remotely using digital records and secure document sharing, which suits doctors with unpredictable schedules, and meetings can be arranged around your commitments. If you already have an accountant, changing over is generally a straightforward process — we can contact your existing adviser, obtain the necessary records and professional clearance, and pick up your affairs without disrupting your filing deadlines.
