Direct Engagement service provision compliance
Presenter:
Kenny Lee; Head of Tax
Following recent increased inspections from HMRC, our experts will examine the latest guidance on Direct Engagement, including an update on the recent Isle of Wight tribunal ruling regarding VAT on locum doctors.
We will outline what the decision means for NHS organisations, how it may develop over time, and the implications for VAT treatment across the sector, ensuring you are up to date on the potential risks facing NHS providers.
In this free webinar, we will:
• Provide an overview of the Isle of Wight VAT ruling, its potential impact, and what NHS leaders should be aware of in the months ahead.
• Explain the latest HMRC guidance on Direct Engagement.
• Outline what effective Direct Engagement looks like to remain compliant.
• Highlight the risks providers may face and how to gain assurance ahead of an HMRC inspection.
This session will give NHS organisations clear insight into the evolving temporary staffing landscape and practical steps to ensure VAT compliance in this area.
