    Ep 350: Jumping off the treadmill- South Africa edition

    Cyra is joined by Nina, a South African doctor, how medical training in South Africa works: a six-year degree followed by compulsory government placement of two internship years and one rural community service year before independent practice, while specialist registrar posts are government-only, scarce, and often require years of waiting. Nina shares why she entered medicine after a childhood spinal fusion and admiration for her surgeon, but felt increasingly disconnected from the work, wanted a life outside medicine, and struggled with a broken system, long hours, and unpaid overtime. She nearly quit before community service but finished to keep future options, then began traveling. Nina explains she started posting raw, honest videos about leaving medicine to provide representation, gaining rapid online support, while facing more in-person backlash from colleagues and family, and emphasizes that reassessing and quitting can be a valid choice.

    Ep 349: Budget 2026 – What’s New?

    Individual: https://investengine.com/affiliate-welcome/?utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_source=Medics Money&utm_content=Podcast&partner_id=550 Business: https://investengine.com/affiliate-business-welcome/?utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_source=Medics Money&utm_content=Podcast&partner_id=550 The hosts review Labour’s third budget of the Parliament (28 Oct 2026), the first under Prime Minister Andy Burnham and Chancellor John Healey, arguing it lacked big headlines but contained many detailed changes with potential impact for doctors. Core income tax thresholds remain frozen, continuing fiscal drag, while tax on rental and savings interest rises by 2% from April 2027 (dividend tax unchanged). The trading allowance increases from £1,000 to £3,000, and self-assessment payment timing is set to shift from 2029, affecting cash flow. From April 2028, the £2,500 employment-expense claim threshold requiring self-assessment is removed, and mileage rates are improved. ISA plans to cut cash ISA limits are scrapped; Lifetime ISAs are replaced in April 2029 with a first-time buyer ISA, with the >£450k withdrawal penalty abolished. CGT changes include cutting Business Asset Disposal Relief to £500k and introducing a limited founders relief. NHS measures are modest, with limited winter funding, robotics investment, and a productivity/AI review, amid ongoing pay tensions; cost-of-living steps include fuel duty and VAT cuts and an energy payment for bands A–D. 00:00 Budget Overview 02:22 Income Tax Changes 05:13 Self Assessment Shakeup 07:50 Claiming Work Expenses 10:17 ISA Rule Changes 12:32 Capital Gains Updates 15:50 NHS Funding Snapshot 18:00 Cost of Living Measures 20:04 Wrap Up and Takeaways Terms and Conditions apply.

    Ep 345: Priority Neighbourhoods - what GPs need to know and do NOW

    Find a medical solicitor today: https://medicsmoney.co.uk/find-a-medical-solicitor/ Host Dr. Tommy Perkins is joined by Sarah Cook, a specialist medical solicitor from DR Solicitors, to unpack NHS England's recent consultation on the future of neighbourhood healthcare — a topic that could reshape how general practice is delivered. Key topics covered: The consultation at a glance — NHS England isn't asking whether neighbourhood healthcare is coming; it's asking who will deliver and control it. Two models are on the table: a Single Neighbourhood Provider (SNP) built on existing PCN footprints (~50,000 patients), and a Multi-Neighbourhood Provider (MNP) spanning multiple neighbourhoods (~250,000+ patients) that would coordinate a wide range of services across primary and community care.Three SNP delivery routes — (1) Vary the existing PCN DES (already in regulations since May), (2) Have the PCN hold a single neighbourhood contract directly, or (3) Let an MNP sweep up services and subcontract them — the option GPs should most want to avoid.Income & risk concerns — Dr. Perkins raises the fear that MNPs could strip away enhanced-service income (LESs, DESs) that practices rely on top of the frozen global sum. Sarah reassures that GMS/PMS contracts remain and PCN/ARRS funding is intended to be protected — but only if practices stay engaged and organised.The legal entity question — Any SNP contract must be held by a legal entity. Since PCNs aren't legal entities, many are incorporating as limited companies to gain limited liability, cleaner governance, and the ability to hold contracts and employ staff (with NHS pension access confirmed).Future of PCNs — PCNs are expected to evolve into neighbourhoods rather than disappear outright. A limited company structure gives practices future-proofing and flexibility for that transition.What practices should do now — Assess your current organisational model, consider whether a limited company makes sense, read the consultation, and get both legal and accounting advice. DR Solicitors offers a free initial consultation and has a webinar on their website. Bottom line: Neighbourhoods represent a potential growth opportunity for GP-led organisations — but only for practices that get structured and ready before contracts arrive. Those that disengage risk losing control and income to MNPs. Want the latest financial tips for doctors and exclusive invites?

Plus, a little-known NICU parental leave entitlement most parents miss.
