FREE! 8 Steps to Becoming a CRNA: https://www.cspaedu.com/3m9jgffp

What do the different CRNA employment paths look like, and which one is right for you? Whether you’re pursuing a W2 position or looking to strike out on your own as a 1099 practice, we’ve got the info you need to make the best decision for your career, your family, and your future. 

Today, we are joined by Jake Bevilacqua, a current CRNA and financial planning expert. He’ll be sharing his experience throughout his CRNA career, and diving into- 

• The key differences between being a W2 employee as opposed to a 1099 contractor 
• How to design your team if you choose a 1099 career path 
• The benefit of having separate disability insurance (outside of what your employer offers)
• How to get high-quality malpractice insurance 
• An in-depth look at the pros and cons of CRNA, and how to make the best choices for your current life status
