Purpose


In Rule 64B14-4.100, F.A.C., the purpose and effect of the rule development is to provide a more comprehensive description of the elements of approved training for applicants for licensure as orthotists and prosthetists, and to set a limit on the amount of time an intern/resident can practice without a license in the state of Florida. In Rule 64B14-4.110, F.A.C., the purpose and effect of the rule development is to delete references to specific providers of the approved education for orthotic fitter and orthotic fitter assistant candidates, because the previously identified providers have changed titles and other providers are anticipated who will meet the statutory and rule requirements for training programs.
