Ep 101 The "P" Word (Program Work, Preferred Vendors, and Third Party Administrators aka TPAs)

The DYOJO Podcast

Some contractors love program work and set up their businesses to attempt to thrive in this revenue stream. Some contractors hate third-party administrators and do everything in their power to avoid anything resembling a TPA agreement. Many contractors have questions about preferred vendor programs and who they can best utilize this resource.
