Not every doctor does, but many benefit from one. If you are fully employed on PAYE with a single NHS post and no other income, your tax affairs may be relatively straightforward. Once you take on locum shifts, private fees, consultancy work, a practice share or additional pension considerations, Self Assessment and the associated expense rules become far more involved — and that is generally when professional accounting support pays for itself in accuracy and peace of mind.
It depends on your circumstances rather than your job title. Salaried doctors taxed entirely through PAYE may not need to file, but if you have self-employed locum or private income, receive untaxed income, hold a directorship, have a partnership share, or meet certain other criteria, a return is usually required. If you are unsure whether your situation triggers a filing obligation, it is worth checking before the deadline rather than after.
NHS salary is normally taxed through PAYE, while private medical fees, locum work and consultancy income are generally reported through Self Assessment, sometimes with payments on account. Both must be declared where a return is required, but the way expenses are allocated between employed and self-employed work differs, which is why it helps to keep the two streams clearly separated in your records.
Allowable expenses typically need to be wholly and exclusively incurred for your work. Common examples for doctors include medical indemnity cover, professional body subscriptions, certain equipment and specialist clothing, relevant training and CPD costs, and business travel or mileage. The treatment of each item — and whether it belongs against employed or self-employed income — depends on your circumstances, so it is worth reviewing your claims rather than assuming.
Medical indemnity is a common area of confusion because its treatment depends on whether the cover relates to employed work, self-employed work, or both. Where it is incurred for a self-employed medical trade, relief is generally available; for employed work, the position can differ. Because policies and working arrangements vary so much, it is best to have your specific cover reviewed rather than relying on a general rule.
There is no universal answer. Locum and private doctors sometimes operate as sole traders for simplicity, while others use a limited company for reasons that suit their circumstances. The right choice depends on your income level, how many contracts you hold, whether IR35 or off-payroll rules may apply, and your longer-term plans. Structure should be reviewed periodically as your working pattern changes.
Yes. We can bring your NHS pay, private fees, locum income, consultancy earnings and any practice profits together so your reporting is consistent and nothing is missed. That might mean preparing a single Self Assessment return covering several sources, or dealing with company accounts alongside your personal return where a limited company is involved.
Yes. Much of the work involved in preparing accounts, tax returns and bookkeeping can be handled remotely, with documents and records shared securely and questions answered by phone, email or video call. How the arrangement works in practice is something we agree with you at the outset, based on how you prefer to communicate and what your affairs involve.
