Frequently asked questions
What specific tax issues do accountants for doctors handle?
Accountants for doctors typically manage Self Assessment tax returns, pension annual allowance calculations, and income from multiple sources such as locum shifts or private practice. They also advise on capital allowances for medical equipment, VAT for private services, and Corporation Tax if you operate through a limited company. Their expertise ensures you claim all allowable expenses and stay compliant with HMRC.
How do I choose between an ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT qualified accountant?
All three qualifications indicate a high level of competence, but the right choice depends on your needs. ACCA and ICAEW accountants are chartered professionals with extensive training in tax and audit, suitable for complex affairs. AAT members are skilled in bookkeeping and basic tax. For doctors, a chartered accountant is often preferable due to the complexity of pension rules and income structuring.
Can an accountant help me with my pension annual allowance?
Yes, an experienced accountant can calculate your annual allowance and identify any tapered reduction based on your income. They can help you plan contributions to avoid the annual allowance charge, and if you have exceeded the limit, they can advise on using carry-forward relief or paying the charge from your pension scheme. This is a crucial area for doctors.
What records do I need to keep for my accountant?
You should keep all records of income and expenses, including payslips, bank statements, receipts for professional memberships, courses, equipment, and travel. If you work through a limited company, retain records of dividends, salary, and any company expenses. Your accountant will need these to prepare accurate accounts and tax returns, so organise them regularly.
How often should I meet with my accountant?
Most doctors meet their accountant at least twice a year, once for a tax planning session and once for the year-end accounts preparation. However, you may need more frequent contact if your circumstances change, such as starting a new role or buying a property. Many firms offer ongoing advice via email or phone, so you can ask questions as they arise.
What is the benefit of using a specialist accountant for doctors?
A specialist accountant understands the unique financial landscape of the medical profession, including NHS pensions, locum work, and private practice. They can identify tax savings that a general accountant might miss, such as claiming for professional indemnity insurance or home office expenses. Their expertise reduces your risk of errors and ensures you are fully compliant with HMRC regulations.
