The Loula Referrals Program is designed to connect clients looking for doulas with our network of doulas.
Important:
The program is free and offered as a pro bono service to doulas and clients.
Loula does not guarantee referrals. While some doulas may receive multiple inquiries, others may receive few or none.
Loula does not charge doulas for referrals.
Out of courtesy, respond to all referrals, even if you are not able to take the referral on.
How It Works
Your Loula Directory Profile
Each doula has a Loula Directory profile.
Clients can browse the directory and reach out directly from your profile if they are interested in working with you.
Client Intake Form & Notifications
When a client submits an intake form through your profile, you will receive an email notification.
These notifications come from [email protected].
You are responsible for following up with the client directly to schedule a consultation.
Client and Doula's Choice
A client may contact multiple doulas before making their decision.
You are not obligated to take-on all Loula referrals -- you also have choice.
It is up to you to communicate with the client and move the process forward.
Creating a Client
Once you and the client agree to work together, you should create the client in Loula.
At that point, Loula will run insurance verification for the client using the information they provided.
Loula does not verify a client’s insurance before passing the referral to you. The referral simply indicates the client’s interest in working with you.
There is no guarantee that Loula can bill for a referred client. Every referred client still needs to go through the same insurance verification process as any other client.
