Remuneration of doctors working in healthcare; age and gender
Description
This table contains figures on the remuneration of general practitioners, dentists, psychiatrists and (other) medical specialists by age and gender. The income is broken down by type of doctor’s income (self-employed, employed, director-major shareholder, other and total). These are doctors working in the healthcare sector, i.e. have an employment relationship in SBI Q of the Standard Business Classification 2008 (SBI 2008), these are SBI codes starting with 86, 87 or 88. The reference point used in a reporting year is the last Friday before Christmas.
The sharp change in the average dividend significant interest in 2019 compared to the previous year is partly determined by a change in dividend tax.
In the coming years, DGAs should limit any debts to their company to a maximum of EUR 500,000; anything borrowed from one’s own company above this amount is seen as notional significant interest. The debts of a company can be reduced by means of dividend payments. Since the rate on income from significant interest in Box 2 will gradually increase, the distribution of dividends as early as possible is the most favourable.
Data available from: 2011
Status of the figures:
