Location
Online event access details will be provided by the event organiser
About
Speakers
Paul Copeland, Director William Buck
Ben Ryan, Senior Associate, Avant Law
Victoria, NSW, ACT, Queensland and South Australia are all applying precedents which allow them to charge payroll tax on medical professional fees paid to independent GPs under conventional General Practice structures.
Recognizing this as a major risk many Practices have taken the approach of removing aspects of contracts which may suggest a relationship other than a service relationship between the clinic and a tenant GP. This may present issues for Practices in achieving clinical coverage during preferred patient hours and in other areas such as clinic accreditation.
The webinar will discuss the implications of contractual administrative controls for payroll tax exposure and the potential to expose clinics to other employment law liabilities.
