According to Kristi, to avoid an inducement violation, you can offer an incentive up to how much per event, with what annual limit?

• A. $15, $500
• B. $30, $300
• C. $50, $75
• D. $20, $100

Answer: (C)

Understanding permissible incentives to avoid inducement violations. Kristi’s guidance limits incentives to small, time-bound amounts: up to fifty dollars per event, with an annual total limit of seventy-five dollars. This means you can offer up to fifty dollars for a single event, but the overall value in a given year cannot exceed seventy-five dollars. The per-event cap prevents a single, large payment from appearing like compensation for referrals, while the annual cap limits overall exposure to incentives. Higher amounts or removing the annual cap would increase the risk of an inducement violation.
