FAQs
Can protection insurance be paid for through my company?
In some cases, yes. Certain types of protection can often be arranged so that the premiums are paid by your company rather than personally.
This is commonly used by clinicians operating through limited companies or private practice structures and can offer potential tax efficiencies, depending on the policy and circumstances.
Read our guide on practice-paid life insurance.
Do clinicians working in partnerships or LLPs need protection planning?
Yes. When clinicians operate within partnerships or LLPs, their financial interests are closely linked to other partners in the practice.
If a partner dies or becomes seriously ill, it can create uncertainty around ownership and financial responsibilities. Protection planning can help ensure that partnership shares are transferred smoothly and provide financial support to the partner’s family.

What happens to my income if I cannot work due to illness?
Many clinicians rely on their ability to practise in order to maintain income. If illness or injury prevents you from working, your personal income and financial commitments could be affected.
Income protection policies are designed to provide a replacement income during periods when you are medically unable to work.
Can clinicians still get mortgages with complex income?
Yes, although lenders sometimes find it difficult to assess income that comes from a combination of NHS work, private practice, partnerships or company income.
Specialist mortgage advice can help identify lenders who understand these structures and are comfortable assessing complex clinical earnings.
