Frequently asked questions
What specific services do accountants for doctors typically provide?
Accountants who specialise in the medical sector typically offer a comprehensive range of services tailored to your circumstances. This includes preparing and submitting your Self Assessment tax return, managing payroll for practice staff, and providing strategic advice on pension contributions to avoid annual allowance charges. They also assist with the setup and administration of limited companies, handle VAT returns, and offer proactive tax planning to ensure you are not paying more than necessary.
How can an accountant help with HMRC investigations or queries?
If HMRC opens an enquiry into your tax affairs, having a qualified accountant is invaluable. They will act as your agent, handling all communication with HMRC on your behalf. They will gather the necessary records, prepare detailed responses to any queries, and represent you throughout the process. This professional representation reduces stress and ensures that your rights are protected, and that the investigation is concluded as efficiently as possible.
What is the difference between ACCA, ICAEW, and AAT qualifications?
ACCA and ICAEW are chartered accountancy bodies, with members being fully qualified chartered accountants who have completed rigorous exams and practical experience. AAT is a professional body for accounting technicians, who are skilled in bookkeeping and preparing accounts but often work under the supervision of a chartered accountant. All three qualifications indicate a high level of competence, but chartered status often signifies a deeper level of strategic and technical expertise.
Why is it important for a doctor to use a specialist accountant rather than a general practitioner?
Doctors have complex financial situations, including multiple income sources, significant pension contributions, and specific tax reliefs. A specialist accountant understands the intricacies of NHS pension schemes, the annual allowance, and the tapered annual allowance. They are also familiar with the tax treatment of private practice income and locum work. A generalist may not be fully up to date with these specific rules, potentially leading to overpayment of tax or missed opportunities for savings.
How do I know if I need to be VAT-registered for my private practice?
VAT registration is compulsory if your taxable turnover for the previous 12 months exceeds the current threshold, or if you expect it to exceed this in the next 30 days. This includes income from private patient fees, but not NHS work. A specialist accountant can analyse your income streams, advise you on your exact obligations, and help you decide whether voluntary registration might be beneficial for reclaiming input VAT on practice expenses.
What records should I keep to make my accountant's job easier?
To ensure a smooth and efficient process, you should maintain organised records of all income and expenditure. This includes receipts for equipment, travel expenses, professional subscriptions, and any costs related to your practice. You should also keep a log of your mileage and any other business-related expenses. Providing your accountant with a clear, digital record of your transactions will help them prepare your accounts accurately and identify all allowable deductions.
