The dental lead will dismiss the team once all service members have been seen. Should an event last longer than 10 hours, contractors are reimbursed for each additional hour at 10% of their daily rate on a per minute basis.
At times, there will be what is termed “abbreviated events”, which are events that are expected to be under six hours. Contractors are compensated for no less than four hours. Compensation for these events is half of the daily rate.

Background checks for new contractors are not processed until one week before a confirmed event
Events are primarily scheduled on weekends. However, during summer months we do experience a lull in the number of events, and there will often be several months where no events are scheduled.
Payments are processed two weeks after the completion of an event. Payments are mailed to the contractor’s address on file, or made via direct deposit if the contractor has a direct deposit on file.
Mileage is reimbursed at the government rate of $0.56 per mile and based on the shortest timed route using Google Maps. See the chart below for a more detailed example of how mileage compensation works.
