If my 1099-MISC has my maiden name, and the company that issued it refuses to change it, will that be a problem when I file my taxes using my new married name?

That doesn't matter as long as your SS# is correct.

What matters is that you use the same name that the Social Security Administration (SSA) currently has on file on your tax forms. That is if you haven't yet changed you name with SSA, use your maiden name on your tax forms.
