If you have a contract as a IC can they break it???

[Wiings]

If you have a contract as a IC can the person break it without notice and change you over to an employee?

Maybe? It would be helpful to know the language of the contract in terms of how long it is in effect, and what constitutes a reasonable cause for changing the terms. (I would want a contract that offers either party an out should things not be to their satisfaction).

South Carolina just changed some laws regarding massage and chiropractic: if insurance is being billed for the massage work, it must be done by an employee of the chiropractor, on site.

This, of course, assumes that the massage therapist does not accept insurance independently of the chiropractor.

They can't force you to take the job as an employee.

They can offer you the job, but it is up to you to accept.

As for "breaking" a contract, it is only "broken" if they are violating the terms of the contract. Most contracts have a "termination for convenience" clause -- which usually requires notice. Others have a "termination for cause" clause, which means one party violated the terms of the contract, and may incur a penalty.
