What are the Legal Considerations of 1099 for CRNAs?

Video Summary

Mark Silberman and Chris DeGrande host a podcast discussing the differences between being an independent contractor and an employee for Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs). They emphasize that this decision impacts control, liability, and benefits. Employees typically have set hours, benefits, and less liability, but less control over their work. Independent contractors have more control and autonomy but must manage their own benefits and insurance. Key factors in classification include control over work, financial arrangements, and the nature of the relationship. They caution that misclassification for financial gain by employers could lead to governmental scrutiny or legal actions. They recommend consulting trusted professionals for personalized advice and ensuring contracts are in writing for clear terms.
