What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Degree Wellness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchisee (referred to as 'Group') is required to pay a 'Staffing and Ancillary Fee' to 'Staffer' (the staffing service provider). This fee is referred to as the 'Monthly Staffing and Ancillary Fee'.
The document states that the exact dollar amount to be paid for this fee is not specified but will be inserted as $[Insert]. The fee covers staffing services provided, and the franchisee's payment is calculated as the revenue from IV infusion therapy, minus direct costs for products, the costs of support and placed employees, and an additional unspecified amount (again, $[Insert]) per month paid to the Group.
In essence, the 'Monthly Staffing and Ancillary Fee' is a net calculation based on revenue and various expense deductions, with an additional amount factored in. The franchisee should clarify the exact dollar amounts represented by the '[Insert]' placeholders with Degree Wellness to fully understand this fee's financial implications.
