1 Pension reform is required because people are living longer. 2  Today, a 60-year-old doctor retiring can expect to enjoy 29 years of retirement. 3  This means drawing a pension for almost the same time as they worked for the NHS - 36 years. Compare this with a newly qualified doctor joining the reformed scheme after 2015. 2  He can expect a pension of over Â£53,000 at age 65 (the normal pension age for new joiners) or a pension of around Â£68,000 a year at his state pension age of 68.
A. If youâre vested, you can begin receiving your pension benefits as early as age 55, or even sooner if you are disabled. However, if you choose to receive your pension before the normal retirement age of 65, your monthly annuity payment will be reduced. The Retirement Plan states that you canât begin receiving your pension earlier than age 65 unless you are retired, meaning that you canât be under contract or receiving a salary for AFTRA-covered work.
