Medical Practitioners Accounting Services
We appreciate that medical practitioner in today’s world, are extremely busy not only managing their patients but also keeping abreast of required knowledge which medical profession continuously demands. Whilst you may be on top of the day to day running, this continued pressure may cause problems for you in other areas of your practice.
Not necessarily. But vast majority will have to if you have income from employment(S), investment,
Overseas, capital gains, rentals, or if you are a company director. You may also have income in excess of £100,000 from multiple sources, self-employed practice income, untaxed medical fess, or NHS related expenses to claim in which case you must file your file your self-assessment tax return or corporation tax return if trading as a corporation.
The answer is yes if on doctor’s NHS income, wrong PAYE coding has been used or several types of allowable reliefs are not claimed then you may well be in receipt of a tax rebate.
You may well be able to claim majority of the expenses such as professional body’s subscriptions, Charitable Gift Aid donations, personal pension contributions, car allowance or work related travel, use of home, medical equipment, and any other necessary expenses incurred in job.
Yes, provided certain conditions are met e.g.; proper employment and training contract is in place and such a training is fundamental in carrying out the employment duties under the contract. In which case any costs of travel to the training events, course fees and other associated costs incurred by the employee can be reimbursed by the medical practice/employer and are considered tax deductible.
Different types of national insurance contributions are due on employment(s) and self-employed income. It may well be that as a doctor you are charged NIC at all sources like NHS salary and locum fees. Medical practitioners may well be due a significant National insurance rebate or be able to defer class 1 NIC payments by applying to HMRC provided they are paying Class 1 National Insurance with more than one employer, or earning £827 or more per week from a single job, or earn £982 or more per week from 2 jobs over the tax year.
A reduced rate of NIC will be charged at 2% on your weekly earnings between £155 and £827 in one of your jobs (instead of the standard rate of 12%). However If you offering your services as a self-employed person you cannot defer Class 4 contributions any more.
