Payroll tax and the medical industry

Published on 26 June 2024

We have published guidance on navigating payroll tax for those in the medical industry. 

Businesses in the medical industry provide a broad range of services to the community, therefore it is important to understand the different payroll tax obligations that may exist.

The industry includes medical practices that engage general practitioners (doctors), dental clinics, physiotherapists, podiatrists, osteopaths, psychologists and other allied health professionals.

On 22 May 2024, changes were announced in relation to the application of payroll tax for Victorian general practice (GP) businesses. Detailed arrangements are yet to be confirmed. Monitor our website for updates.
