Frequently asked questions
What specific tax reliefs can an accountant claim for doctors?
A specialist accountant can claim tax relief on professional memberships, indemnity insurance, medical equipment, and travel between workplaces. They will also identify allowable expenses for home office use and CPD courses. By thoroughly analysing your records, they ensure you claim every deduction you are entitled to, reducing your overall tax liability whilst remaining fully compliant with HMRC requirements.
How do I choose between an ACCA and an ICAEW qualified accountant?
Both ACCA and ICAEW qualifications indicate a high level of professional competence and ethical standards. Your choice may depend on the accountant's specific experience with medical clients rather than the qualification itself. It is wise to ask about their familiarity with NHS pensions and locum income. Review their client testimonials and arrange a consultation to assess their approach before making a final decision.
Do I need to register for VAT on my private medical practice?
If your taxable turnover from private practice exceeds the current VAT threshold, you must register with HMRC. An accountant will monitor your income levels and advise when registration becomes necessary. They will also manage your VAT returns and help you understand which services are exempt or zero-rated. This ensures you remain compliant and avoid any penalties for late registration or incorrect filings.
Can an accountant help me with my Self Assessment tax return?
Yes, an accountant will prepare and submit your Self Assessment tax return accurately and on time. They will gather all necessary information about your income from employment, private work, and investments. They also calculate your Class 2 and Class 4 National Insurance contributions. This service reduces your administrative burden and minimises the risk of errors that could trigger an HMRC enquiry.
What is the benefit of using a limited company structure for my practice?
Operating through a limited company can offer tax advantages, such as paying Corporation Tax on profits rather than higher-rate income tax. An accountant will advise on salary versus dividend extraction to optimise your take-home pay. They will also manage your company accounts and filing obligations. This structure provides greater financial flexibility but requires careful planning, which a professional can handle for you.
How often should I meet with my accountant to review my finances?
Most doctors benefit from at least two meetings per year, typically before the tax year end and before the Self Assessment deadline. Your accountant may also offer quarterly reviews if your income fluctuates significantly. Regular contact allows for proactive tax planning and ensures you are not missing any new reliefs. This ongoing relationship helps you stay ahead of your financial obligations and goals.
