This question has been on my mind for some time: Is is possible / feasible to do your own contract with the health care facility. I have heard of this via agencies, but this would be your own contract with the hospital pay your own taxes etc...It is my understanding that this would be a clear tax advantage. Ex. I have my own lap top and I could then claim it for tax purposes...Has anyone done this that could share some insight? Could you recommend how to reasearch this, or a book to read? I have purchased a tx advanage book. I know I would need an accountant and lawyer to set it up and help me maintain it... etc...Thank you for your input... Bonnie:p 0 Likes
