Specifically for doctors
What we pay extra attention to for doctors.
Working as a self-employed locum
As a locum (waarnemer), you work for several practices. We make sure your status as an entrepreneur is well documented, so you keep your right to the entrepreneur's allowance (ondernemersaftrek).
Practice takeover and goodwill
When you take over a practice, you often pay goodwill. We process the depreciation correctly and calculate the financing and practice costs for you in advance.
Practice BV and pension
With a practice BV and a holding company, you can organise your profit and pension build-up differently. We compare the options based on your own figures.
Costs we often see for doctors.
Business expenses reduce your profit and therefore your tax. We make sure they are booked correctly and, where possible, that you make use of the investment deduction (investeringsaftrek).
- Practice premises and fit-out
- Medical equipment and instruments
- Professional indemnity insurance
- Continuing education and accreditation
- GP information system and software

FAQ
Frequently asked questions from doctors
Do I need to file VAT returns as a doctor?+
Not for medical care, as it is exempt. If you also provide services subject to VAT, such as cosmetic treatments, a VAT return may be needed. We assess that for you.
Is a practice BV worthwhile for a GP?+
That depends on your profit and future plans. Above a certain profit level, a BV can be beneficial. We run the numbers and discuss them with you.
Do you also handle my assistants' salaries?+
Yes. We process payslips and payroll tax returns for a fixed fee per payslip, in the same environment as your bookkeeping.
Am I tied to a contract as a doctor?+
No. Your subscription can be cancelled monthly and you pay a fixed monthly fee, with no hourly billing.
Can I switch halfway through the year?+
Yes. We arrange the handover with your current accountant, including history, opening balance and ongoing tax returns.
