Serious Illness for Medical Professionals

A comprehensive serious illness policy will pay you a tax free lump sum upon diagnosis of a prescribed condition which, at the very least, can remove the financial worry of being in practice during your recovery period.

Retirement Planning for Medical Professionals

Think of it as a long-term savings plan with the added benefit of 40% tax relief!

No-one likes to think of old age and retirement, least of all when you’re still in the prime of your life. That’s why most medical professionals only ever think of pensions when their accountant advises them to invest in one at the end of each tax year!

We’d like to take on a different journey and provide you with a different perspective. We understand the nuances in your job specifications and that all medical professionals can be corralled together when it comes to pension planning. For instance, medical lists for GP’s, HSE contracts for Physio’s and Hospital Consultants all have to be taken into account before cementing a plan that’s right for the individual.

Pension Planning For GMS Superannuation Plan Members

Its not simple. But, don’t worry. You’re in safe hands.

The rules pertaining to pension planning for GP’s and other Medical Professionals are complicated when income is generated from both public and private sources. We understand the issues and have summarised below the key details and how we can help.

Many Health Professionals earn their salary through more than one source of income. These types of workers are subject to “Dual Income Rules”.

If a GP / Health Professional is contributing to the GMS or HSE Superannuation Scheme, then the income they receive from that source is always counted first against the “Earnings Cap” (i.e. €115,000) for the purposes of pension planning.

This means that tax relief on contributions to pensions in respect of private income may be reduced or completely negated depending on the overall level of earnings of the person.

Example:

John is a GP aged 45 with a total income of €200,000 per year (€80,000 GMS income and €120,000 private practice income)

Total contributions allowed for tax relief are 25% of €115,000
€28,750
Less contributions to the GMS scheme (5% of €80,000)
- €4,000
Scope for further contributions of€24,750
Pension Planning Options:

€16,000 as an AVC PRSA (25% x €80,000 less the contribution of €4000 to the GMS Scheme already made)

PLUS
€8,750 to a Personal PRSA (€24,750 less the €16,000 contribution to the AVC above).
