NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on February 10, 2009, the Department of Financial Services, Division of Workers’ Compensation, received a petition for variance and waiver from GMAC Insurance Company, requesting a waiver of Rule 69L-56.100, Florida Administrative Code. On February 16, 2009, the Department of Financial Services, Division of Workers’ Compensation received an amended petition for variance or waiver, from GMAC Insurance Company, pursuant to Section 120.542, Florida Statutes, and Rule 28-104.002, Florida Administrative Code. The Petitioner is requesting a variance or waiver from Rule 69L-56.300, Florida Administrative Code, which sets forth requirements for filing certain workers’ compensation claims information with the Division of Workers’ Compensation via electronic data interchange rather than by submitting paper forms. GMAC Insurance Company requests the variance or waiver so that it may submit by paper the information for its two open Florida workers’ compensation claims rather than being required to submit the information via electronic data interchange. On February 17, 2009, GMAC Insurance Company filed a request to withdraw the original petition, dated February 10, 2009, due to an incorrect rule citation. Therefore, the Department will only consider the amended petition filed on February 17, 2009.
Comments on this petition should be filed with: Department of Financial Services, Division of Workers’ Compensation, 200 E. Gaines Street, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-4229, within 14 days of publication of this notice.
A copy of the Petition for Variance or Waiver may be obtained by contacting: Andrew Sabolic, Assistant Division Director, Division of Workers’ Compensation, 200 E. Gaines Street, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-4228, [phone].
