The purpose of the amendment to Rule 59G-1.010 is to update definitions and adopt a definition of "usual and customary charge." The definition comports with the plain meaning of the term and is consistent with the requirement of cost effective purchasing of health services in the Florida Medicaid Program for all providers, except for pharmacy providers (as a definition already exists in the Florida Medicaid Prescribed Drug Services Coverage, Limitations and Reimbursement Handbook, July 2014). The rule will require Medicaid enrolled providers, except for pharmacy providers, when listing their "usual and customary charge" to provide the price or fee that is most often or frequently accepted as payment by the provider for the particular service. The rule also explains the time period to be applied in calculating the usual and customary charge.

- Petitions and Dispositions Regarding Rule Variance or Waiver (2)
-
On July 17, 2014 the Division of Hotels and Restaurants received a Petition for a Routine Variance for Subparagraph 61C-1.004(1)(a), Florida Administrative Code and Paragraph 5-202.11(A), 2009 FDA Food Code from Levy Premium Food Service LP Main Kitchen located in Jacksonville. The above referenced F.A.C. addresses the requirement that each establishment have an approved plumbing system installed to transport potable water and wastewater. They are requesting to utilize holding tanks to provide potable water and to collect wastewater at the handwash sinks located at bar\beverage kioks that are part of the main kitchen.
The Petition for this variance was published in Vol. 40/145 on July 28, 2014. The Order for this Petition was signed and approved on August 12, 2014. After a complete review of the variance request, the Division finds that the application of this Rule will create a financial hardship to the food service establishment. Furthermore, the Division finds that the Petitioner meets the burden of demonstrating that the underlying statute has been achieved by the Petitioner ensuring the wastewater holding tank for the handwash sinks is emptied at a frequency as to not create a sanitary nuisance; and potable water provided must come from an approved source and be protected from contamination during handling. The Petitioner shall also ensure that the handwash sinks are provided with hot and cold running water under pressure, with soap, an approved hand drying device and a handwashing sign.
-
variance filed by Burton Construction Services, Inc. The petition seeks a variance from Rule 69L-6.025, F.A.C., in order to allow the Petitioner to resume making periodic payments and lifting a Stop-Work Order.
