Not every doctor does. If you have a single NHS employment, your tax code handles your pay correctly and you have no other income, your tax affairs may be straightforward. An accountant becomes more valuable once you have private income, locum earnings, consultancy work, partnership profits, a company, or expenses you are unsure how to claim. Many doctors also value the reassurance that a return has been checked and deadlines are being met.
Your NHS salary is taxed through PAYE, and your private or locum income is usually reported through Self Assessment. The return brings both together, and HMRC may then request payments on account towards the following year. Getting the figures right depends on accurate records of private fees, expenses and any tax already deducted, which is where an accountant can save you both time and uncertainty.
Medical indemnity cover and professional body or GMC subscriptions are commonly claimed where they are required for your work and not reimbursed by an employer. The position can vary depending on whether you are employed, self-employed or working through a company, and on whether the cost relates to your professional practice. It is worth reviewing each expense against the rules rather than assuming it qualifies.
Locum income is often treated as self-employment, which means you may need to register for Self Assessment, keep records of income and costs, and potentially pay Class 2 and Class 4 National Insurance. Travel between sites, equipment and administrative costs may be allowable depending on the arrangement, and whether you work through an agency or directly with a practice can change the picture.
It depends on your circumstances. A limited company can suit some private practitioners and consultants, while others are better served as a sole trader or within a partnership. Factors include your income level, how you are engaged, IR35 considerations, pension arrangements and how much administration you are willing to take on. A structure review is usually more useful than a general answer.
Keeping bank statements, invoices for private or locum work, receipts for indemnity cover, subscriptions, training, equipment and a mileage log will make your return far easier to prepare and support. Records also matter if HMRC queries a return later. Digital bookkeeping tools can simplify this considerably, particularly if income arrives from several sources.
Yes. Partnership arrangements involve allocating profits between partners, preparing partnership accounts and reporting each partner's share, which raises questions about profit share agreements and tax planning. Private practices bring additional considerations around bookkeeping, management accounts, payroll for staff and whether VAT applies to particular services.
It is usually straightforward. We ask for details of your current accountant, contact them for the relevant records and files with your authority, review your previous returns and bookkeeping, and confirm anything outstanding with HMRC. We can handle the handover and set up the ongoing support you need, so you are not managing the transition yourself.
