Frequently asked questions
What specific tax issues do accountants for doctors handle?
Accountants for doctors specialise in unique areas such as pension annual allowance calculations, NHS and private practice income streams, and locum work expenses. They ensure you claim all allowable deductions, manage your Self Assessment tax return accurately, and advise on the most efficient business structure, whether that is sole trader or a limited company. They also help with VAT registration and Corporation Tax if applicable.
How do I choose between an ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT qualified accountant?
All three qualifications indicate a high level of professional competence. ACCA and ICAEW chartered accountants often have more experience with complex tax planning and corporate matters, whilst AAT accountants are excellent for day-to-day bookkeeping and preparing tax returns. Consider your specific needs: if you run a limited company, an ACCA or ICAEW professional might be more suitable. Always check their experience with medical clients.
Why is it important to use a specialist accountant for doctors?
Specialist accountants understand the NHS pension scheme and the annual allowance, which can be easily triggered by additional locum income. They also know which expenses are genuinely claimable for medical professionals, such as indemnity insurance, course fees, and specialist equipment. Using a general accountant might mean missing out on valuable tax savings or making errors in your Self Assessment, leading to HMRC enquiries.
What should I expect from my accountant regarding HMRC communications?
Your accountant should act as your agent with HMRC, handling any correspondence on your behalf. They will ensure your tax return is filed correctly and on time, respond to any queries from HMRC, and help you with tax investigations if they arise. They should also provide proactive advice on tax planning to minimise your liabilities legally, keeping you informed of any changes in tax law that affect you.
Can an accountant help me with VAT if I am a doctor?
Yes, an accountant can advise on whether you need to be VAT-registered. Most doctors providing medical services are exempt from VAT, but if you have other income streams, such as selling products or providing non-medical services, you might need to register. Your accountant will analyse your income sources and guide you on VAT compliance, ensuring you meet your obligations and avoid penalties.
How often should I meet with my accountant for doctors?
It is advisable to have at least two formal meetings a year: one for tax planning before the end of the tax year and one to review your accounts and prepare your tax return. However, a good accountant will be available throughout the year for advice on financial decisions, such as buying equipment or changing your work pattern. Regular communication helps you stay on top of your finances and avoid surprises.
