64B18-14.002: Disciplinary Guidelines
- NOTICE OF CHANGENotice is hereby given that the following changes have been made to the proposed rule in accordance with subparagraph 120.54(3)(d)1., F.S., published in Vol. 37 No. 36, September 9, 2011 issue of the Florida Administrative Weekly.
64B18-14.002 shall read as:
The Summary of Statement of Estimated Regulatory Costs and Legislative Ratification published in the Notice of Proposed Rule shall read as:
SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS: During discussion of the economic impact of this rule at its Board meeting, the Board, based upon the expertise and experience of its members, determined that a Statement of Estimated Regulatory Cost (SERC) was not necessary and that these rule amendments will not require ratification by the Legislature. No person or interested party submitted additional information regarding the economic impact at that time. The Board has determined that this will not have an adverse impact on small business, or likely increase regulatory costs in excess of $200,000 in the aggregate within 1 year after implementation of the rule. Any person who wishes to provide information regarding the statement of estimated costs, or to provide a proposal for a lower regulatory cost alternative must do so in writing within 21 days of this notice.
Subsection (2)(yy) shall be changed to read as follows: Being convicted of, or entering a plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, any misdemeanor or felony, regardless of adjudication, a crime in any jurisdiction which relates to health care fraud, the Board shall impose a penalty ranging from suspension to revocation and a fine of $10,000, per count.
THE PERSON TO BE CONTACTED REGARDING THE PROPOSED RULE IS: Bruce Deterding, Executive Director, Board of Podiatric Medicine, 4052 Bald Cypress Way, Bin #C07, Tallahassee, Florida 32314-3256
