While associateship may not be viewed as a long-term career choice for many dentists, Dr. Soraya Safi emphasizes that associateship doesn’t have to be just a step on the road to practice ownership. Not every dentist wants the long hours, risk, and responsibility involved with owning his/her own practice.

38:53The Dental Amigos are back! Rob and Paul discuss recent developments in the dentistry world regarding the prohibition of covenants not to compete in the employment context by the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”). This federal non-compete ban by the FTC has been controversial spurring lawsuits that challenge the constitutionality of the ban, resulting in a court order that stopped the FTC from enforcing the ban. The FTC is considering an appeal. While some states have banned non-competes within their states, the prohibition on a federal level remains controversial and will continue to play out. With most associate agreements containing non-competes that prevent dentists from providing competing services within a specified geographic area both during an associate’s employment and for a period of time after leaving employment, this issue is getting a lot of attention in the dental world. The Amigos discuss the value of a non-compete, the limitations that a non-compete ban would impose, as well as the impact that a ban would have on the greater economy. The Amigos also discuss what’s happening with DSOs.

23:27In this second episode of The Dental Amigos’ third season on buying into a practice and bringing on a partner, Rob and Paul discuss an opportunity that many associates are presented with: DSO partnerships. Although these offers can seem enticing, DSO partnership agreements often contain provisions that chain associates to the practice by making it very difficult for them to leave from both a legal and business standpoint. The Amigos discuss these provisions as well as how it can be difficult to determine exactly how much money an associate would make from the prospective partnership. They then discuss why it’s critically important to identify an exit strategy prior to signing a DSO partnership contract.

29:14The Dental Amigos are back with a fifth episode of their Dental Associate Agreements from an Employer’s Perspective season, where they discuss the all-important topic in any employment relationship- compensation. Rob and Paul focus on helping practice owners realize that they should create an agreement that is clear and understood by both the employer and their new associate so that everyone is “on the same page”. The Amigos emphasize that practice owners were once young associates too and although it is important to make money in the short term, taking the time to build relationships and a strong team will ultimately make for a better work environment, which will then lead to more money and success in the long term. The Amigos conclude that in the end, if an associate seems to meet a practice owner’s expectations, the associate will most likely be a good fit for the practice.

28:38In this fourth episode of The Dental Amigos, Rob and Paul discuss the importance of classifying an associate correctly, whether as an independent contractor (“1099”) or an employee (“W-2”). Rob explains it is not up to a practice owner to simply decide whether an associate will be considered an independent contractor or not. Instead, there are state and federals laws and regulations, that determine such classification. As a practice owner, it can be easy to get wrapped up in the day to day of practice ownership and not think about the consequences that may arise from improper classification. Rob and Paul focus this episode on making practice owners aware of what could go wrong if they don’t take the proper steps when it comes correctly to classifying and treating an associate as either an independent contractor or employee.
