Frequently asked questions
What specific tax issues do accountants for doctors handle?
Accountants for doctors specialise in areas such as Self Assessment tax returns, NHS pension annual allowance calculations, and tax planning for private practice income. They also manage expenses related to professional memberships, courses, and equipment. They ensure you claim every allowable deduction and stay compliant with HMRC regulations, which is crucial for high earners in the medical profession.
How can an accountant help with my NHS pension and annual allowance?
An accountant can calculate your pension annual allowance and identify if you have exceeded the tapered annual allowance, which is a common issue for senior doctors. They can help you manage your tax liability by advising on options such as scheme pays, and they will ensure your tax returns accurately reflect your pension contributions, avoiding unexpected tax charges from HMRC.
What qualifications should I look for in an accountant?
Look for qualifications from recognised bodies such as ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT. These ensure the accountant has undergone rigorous training and adheres to professional standards. Additionally, check if they have experience specifically with medical clients, as this indicates they understand the unique financial landscape of doctors, including locum work and private practice.
Do I need an accountant if I am a salaried doctor?
Yes, even salaried doctors can benefit from an accountant. They can help you optimise your tax code, claim work-related expenses, and plan for future financial goals. An accountant can also assist with additional income from private work or locum shifts, ensuring you meet HMRC requirements and do not overpay tax. Their advice often saves you more than their fees.
How does an accountant help with VAT for private practice?
If your private practice income exceeds the VAT threshold, you must register for VAT. An accountant will manage your VAT returns, advise on the correct scheme (such as flat rate or standard), and help you reclaim VAT on eligible purchases. They ensure you remain compliant with HMRC and avoid penalties, whilst also identifying ways to minimise your VAT liability.
What should I expect during an initial consultation with an accountant?
During an initial consultation, the accountant will review your current financial situation, including your income sources, expenses, and any existing tax arrangements. They will ask about your short-term and long-term goals, and they will explain how they can assist you. This is also an opportunity for you to ask questions about their experience with doctors and their fee structure.
