I am part of a private practice group and we discussed offering a 1099 position vs W2 to our CRNA so as to attract certain candidates who do not need benefits package. Our lawyers said this is not legal or discouraged us to do that because if a worker is working like an employee, must be treated as one (i.e. W2). But everywhere I look, hospitals, surgery centers, other private groups are offering 1099 positions. Many job advertisement will say W2 and/or 1099 positions available. Do your practice offer 1099 position to CRNA/AA or MD? Has there been any legal issues? Any unforeseen downside or issues? Thank you.
