Purpose

This policy outlines the terms and conditions under which referral bonuses will be awarded for successful client referrals.
Eligibility

- Who Can Be Referred: Any healthcare facility or management company with anesthesia staffing needs that is not already a client of KREWE or has not been contracted with KREWE for services within the past 12 months.
Referral Bonus Structure
Client Referral Bonus: Up to $1,000 for each new candidate placement at a referred client that completes a minimum contract period as specified by KREWE, up to $15,000 per client referral.
Referral Process
- Submission: Referrals must be submitted via the official referral form on the KREWE website. Required information includes the name, contact details, and relevant information about the referred client.
