“Can I be a 1099 hygienist?” “What do I lose if I’m not classified as a W-2 worker?” “I accidentally misclassified an employee. How do I fix this?” Crystal Spring, Executive Director of Smiles Across Montana and Relationship Development Manager for onDiem, answers all these questions and more. Learn why dental hygienists and assistants must be classified as W-2 employees, how misclassification hurts both the professional and the practice, and what you can do to stay protected and compliant.

• The risks and repercussions of misclassification

• Classification criteria: The IRS 3-factor test, state-level tests for classification, and state dental practice acts
