Physicians Group contracted by National Group ASG? PEO?

[Guest Born2Run]

I'm pretty sure we have PEO issues here, but needs some confirmation. I dont think we have ASG or management group issues.

8 doctor PC group.

The docs have contracts with hospital and with national doctor group to perform physician services.

All staff of PC group provided by national doctor group and/or hospital.

Docs of PC own 0% of hospital and 0% of national doctor group.

Assume docs of PC bring in very tiny % of overall revenue of national doctor group in total.

Docs currently part of national doctor group plan ( i assume multiple employer plan but not 100% certain).

Docs want to have plan of their own just for 8 docs.

I dont think it'll fly since it would be hard to argue that the staff are not "employed" by the PC group since i'm sure the PC group is giving staff the direction on what they need to do on daily basis. I just cant see that we'd be able to exclude staff for purposes of 410b.

Agree?
