    Notice 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. 40 No. 213, October 31, 2014 issue of the Florida Administrative Register.

     

    The Department has corrected the document entitled “Newborn Screening Disorders” to reflect that it is incorporated in Rule 64C-7.002.

     

    DH Forms 3134, 3134H, and 3134S, the Prenatal Risk Screen, have been revised to fully comply with section 120.55(1)(a)4., Florida Statutes. In addition, these forms have been amended to only request a truncated version of a patient’s social security number, to update the effective date of the form, and to reformat the form so that the patient information and opt-out option is located at the top of the form.

     

    DH Forms 3135, 3135H, and 3135S, the Infant Risk Screen, have been revised to fully comply with section 120.55(1)(a)4., Florida Statutes. In addition, these forms have been amended to remove the request for the mother’s social security number and to update the effective date of the form.
