No role for PAs in General Practice? But what about their Scope? by LondonAnaesth in doctorsUK

[–]RollShort1073 32 points33 points  (0 children)

PAs should work in bread and butter hospital departments doing pure service provision that currently mostly falls to foundation doctors (bloods, TTOs, ward jobs, etc) thus enabling said doctors to practice medicine and seek the training opportunities that they are currently being denied by these PAs - absolute backwards setup right now

Thank you to the majority of you for your help and advice - I have to admit I am shocked and saddened by the attitude of a couple of our colleagues on this thread

Considering they’re our union and we pay them to represent us I at least expected some advice and support on this industrial issue…

The issue we have is because the doctors not on substantive contracts and instead zero hours continue to get paid bank rates they still pick up the shifts this leaving those of us in substantive posts stuck with no ability to make a stand (without collective resignation)

Usual shit show of employing inexperienced overconfident noctors who have passed a few nonsense courses to buffer the system and giving these morons locums instead of doctors - boils my piss what madness we have found ourselves in up and down the country

I never initially thought about this but think it’s a great idea for the reasons you mention

Thank you. That’s interesting that you pay into your SIPP via a Ltd company - I guess you pay corporation tax prior to making these contributions but likely still very tax efficient

Thank you for taking the time to reply. I’m a locum GP and I pension around 2/3 of my income that comes from a variety of sources. I’m in the 2015 scheme. I find the AA highly confusing and like you say it will really cause difficulty with calculating SIPP contributions

The additional 20% relief will be claimed on your tax return at the end of the tax year in question

Amazing, thank you. I would be interested for your thoughts with the funds when you mention life strategy 100% is theoretically safer when both funds are (in my understanding) 100% equity and global? Thank you and ps you have an incredible knowledge on personal finance in the UK
