Collection of referral fees: IONs Quick integrity Test?
A. ION was built around the honor system. For years, we have given everyone the chance to demonstrate either good or bad business practices. If an investigator agrees to pay ION’s referral fee and doesn’t pay it, he or she has demonstrated they don’t meet ION’s standards of professionalism. They are barred from ION membership and are no longer reachable through ION’s Online Referral Site.
