    GENERAL SUBJECT MATTER TO BE CONSIDERED: A Notice of Rule Development was published in the F.A.W., on July 16, 2010, Vol 36, No. 28 amending Chapter 59B-9, F.A.C. The Agency is scheduling a workshop for the purpose of encouraging input from the public on amendments to Chapter 59B-9, F.A.C., that revise the Ambulatory and Emergency Department Data Collection requirements. Changes include removing the ambulatory exception provision to require that all ambulatory facilities report regardless of low patient volume; modify existing ambulatory data element codes to align with recent revision in the CMS Health Insurance Claim Form (UB04) and its electronic equivalent; delete all ICD-10-CM references due to delayed national implementation and the Agency’s inability to receive an ICD-10-CM format and additional revisions for clarification.
