- To amend the rule to adopt revised reference manuals for medical billing, filing, and reporting, including the Florida Workers’ Compensation Medical EDI Implementation Guide (MEIG), 2008; the 2008 ICD-9-CM Professional for Hospitals, Volumes 1, 2 and 3, International Classification of Diseases, 9th Revision, Clinical Modification, Copyright 2007, Ingenix, Inc. (American Medical Association); the Physician ICD-9-CM 2008, Volumes 1 & 2, International Classification of Diseases, 9th Revision, Clinical Modification, Copyright 2007, Ingenix, Inc. (American Medical Association); the National Uniform Billing Committee Official UB-04 Data Specifications Manual 2009, version 3.00, July 2008; and the Current Procedural Terminology (CPT®), 2008 Professional Edition, Copyright 2007, American Medical Association. The proposed amendment also transfers ambulatory surgical centers billing from Form DFS-F5-DWC-9 (CMS-1500 Health Insurance Claim Form) to Form DFS-F5-DWC-90 (UB-04 CMS-1450, Uniform Bill), effective 04/01/2009, incorporates by reference a revised hospital billing instruction form, Form DFS-F5-DWC-90-B (Completion Instructions for Form DFS-F5-DWC-90 for use by hospitals) and a new ambulatory surgical center billing instruction form, Form DFS-F5-DWC-90-C (Completion Instructions for Form DFS-F5-DWC-90, for use by ambulatory surgical centers), both of which supply guidance regarding the completion of Form DFS-F5-DWC-90. The proposed amendment also adds statutory definitions for “Home Health Agency” and “Nursing Homes”, and provides new billing forms and completion instructions for each respective application. Form DFS-F5-DWC-90-D (for Home Health Agencies) and Form DFS-F5-DWC-90-E (for Nursing Homes), including their respective completion instructions, Form DFS-F5-DWC-90-D (Completion Instructions for Home Health Agencies), and Form DFS-F5-DWC-90-E (Completion Instructions for Nursing Homes), have been incorporated by reference. The proposed amendment further clarifies the meaning of “Recognized Provider” and changes “Principal Physician” to “Primary Physician” when referring to the treating physician responsible for oversight of medical care, treatment and referrals for injured employees. A definition for “Explanation of Bill Review Code” has also been added. The electronic record layout for form DFS-F5-DWC-90 in the Florida Workers’ Compensation Medical EDI Implementation Guide (MEIG), 2008, also adds new fields for the submission of a facility’s Florida Agency for Health Care Administration ambulatory surgical center number and National Provider Identifier (NPI) number. New fields are also provided for the submission of data regarding procedures, service and supply codes, and code modifiers, as paid by the insurer. These changes, in conjunction with the introduction of refined edits, provide enhanced medical data submission and facilitate the Department’s ability to monitor and promote compliance by insurers and submitters with the requirements associated with electronic submission, filing, and reporting of data to the Division of Workers’ Compensation. The proposed amendment deletes subsection (7), “Insurer Administrative Penalties and Administrative Fines for Untimely Health Care Provider-Payment of Medical Bills”. That subsection shall be consolidated into Rule Chapter 69L-24, F.A.C., “Workers’ Compensation Insurers’ Standards and Practices”, as part of a restructuring and realignment of rules that consolidates disparate rule elements into their most appropriate chapter. The proposed amendment also provides new language which clarifies billing instructions for dentists and oral surgeons who dispense medications, as well as for those entities that are neither physicians nor recognized health care providers. New language is also added which emphasizes that insurers, or entities acting on behalf of insurers, are responsible for correcting and resubmitting previously accepted data later deemed inadequate by the Division. Finally, the proposed amendment deletes obsolete references and language, renumbers the rule, and makes ministerial changes where necessary.
- Department of Revenue
- Sales and Use Tax
- The purpose of the proposed amendments to Rule 12A-1.004, F.A.C. (Sales Tax Brackets), is to update the information on how to obtain copies of tax rate tables from the Department.
The purpose of the proposed amendments to Rule 12A-1.038, F.A.C. (Consumer’s Certificate of Exemption; Exemption Certificates), and Rule 12A-1.039, F.A.C. (Sales for Resale), is to clarify that a transaction authorization number used by dealers to document tax-exempt sales or sales made for the purposes of resale may be obtained prior to or at the time of sale.
The purpose of the proposed amendments to subsection (3), Registration of Transient Accommodations, of Rule 12A-1.060, F.A.C. (Registration), and subsection (7), Registration, of Rule 12A-1.061, F.A.C. (Rentals, Leases, and Licenses to Use Transient Accommodations), is to add the requirement for the taxpayer to provide a federal identification number, social security number, or taxpayer identification number; and to provide that the Department uses the social security numbers as unique identifiers for the administration of Florida’s taxes, and that they are held confidential by the Department.
The purpose of the proposed amendments to Rule 12A-1.0911, F.A.C. (Self-Accrual Authorization; Direct Remittance on Behalf of Independent Distributors), is to remove unnecessary provisions regarding the revocation of a sales and use direct pay permit. Administrative rules regarding the revocation of a license, which includes a direct pay permit, have been established by the Administration Commission in Rule Chapter 28-106, F.A.C. All agencies must comply with these rules.
The purpose of the proposed amendments to Rule 12A-1.097, F.A.C. (Public Use Forms), is to: (1) adopt, by reference, changes to forms used by the Department in the administration of sales and use tax for the enterprise zone jobs credit, the special estimation of taxes for boat, motor vehicle, or aircraft dealers, and the verification of customers authorized to purchase for resale; and (2) remove forms previously used for the reporting of sales tax collected by tax collectors and for the reporting regarding interest earned on the investment of funds by county officers that are now reported and remitted by electronic means to the Department.
Specifically, Form DR-15ZC (Application for Florida Enterprise Zone Jobs Credit for Sales Tax) and the instructions on Form DR-15ZCN are being revised to simplify the application and the instructions and provide necessary technical changes.
Form DR-300400 (Boat, Motor Vehicle, or Aircraft Dealer Application for Special Estimation of Taxes), used by the Department in the administration of the estimated sales tax provisions of Section 212.11(1)(d), F.S., is revised to reorganize and simplify the instructions for boat, motor vehicle, and aircraft dealers to submit an application to report estimated tax under that statutory provision. No procedural changes are being implemented with these revisions.
Form DR-600013 (Request for Verification that Customers are Authorized to Purchase for Resale) is revised to provide that a diskette or compact disk (CD) containing specified records must be submitted to verify which customers of a business are authorized to purchase for resale. The Department is no longer able to receive information for verification purposes on cartridge tapes. Revisions are also made to clarify the instructions regarding the verification process.
- Water Management Districts
- St. Johns River Water Management District
- Suwannee River Water Management District
- The purpose of the rule development is to update these sections of Chapter 40B-400, Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.), to amend and include additional items incorporated by reference in Rule 40B-400.091, F.A.C. The proposed rule development will also amend limiting conditions for environmental resource permits (ERP), in Rule 40B-400.115, F.A.C. The effect of the proposed rule development will be to amend the ERP Applicant’s Handbook regarding the de-listing of the bald eagle as threatened species, include a new publication incorporated by reference, Florida Stormwater, Erosion and Sedimentation Control Inspectors Manual, and correct terminology to reflect the new publication incorporated by reference. In addition, the proposed rule development will amend procedures for notification if historical or archaeological artifacts are discovered on property permitted under an ERP.
- The purpose of the rule development is to update this section of Chapter 40B-3, Florida Administrative Code, to require a latitude and longitude for each well on water well completion reports. The effect of the proposed rule amendments will provide for better identification of wells in the data base, and in turn, staff will be able to better assist with public inquiries.

- Department of Financial Services
- Finance
- The rules set forth the policies of the Office of Financial Regulation with respect to processing license applications for persons who have been found guilty of, or who have pled guilty or nolo contendere to, certain crimes. The policies will address applications for licensure as money services businesses, which include money transmitters, payment instrument sellers, foreign currency exchangers, check cashers, and deferred presentment providers.
- During the regular 2008 legislative session, the Florida Legislature passed Senate Bill 2158, relating to money services businesses. The bill was signed into law on June 17, 2008, and will take effect on January 1, 2009. This law makes significant changes to Chapter 560, Florida Statutes. The new law imposes additional regulatory requirements on money services businesses including money transmitters, payment instrument sellers, foreign currency exchangers, check cashers, and deferred presentment providers. The law also requires the Commission to adopt disciplinary guidelines for each ground for which disciplinary action may be imposed by the Office of Financial Regulation against a money services business under Chapter 560, F.S. The rule implements this statutory requirement.

- Rule Chapter 69L-56, F.A.C., is being amended to incorporate by reference the revised Form DFS-F5-DWC-EDI-1, “EDI Trading Partner Profile”, and the revised Form DFS-F5-DWC-EDI-4, “Secure Socket Layer (SSL)/File Transfer Protocol (FTP) Instructions”. The revised Florida Division of Workers’ Compensation Proof of Coverage (POC) Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) Implementation Manual (1/01/08), which contains revisions to the Element Requirement Table and Edit Matrix, and requires insurer reporting of total payroll and number of employees, is also incorporated by reference. The rule is also being amended to incorporate by reference the revised national standard International Association of Industrial Accident Boards and Commissions (IAIABC) EDI Implementation Guide for Proof of Coverage Release 2.1 (6/01/07) and the IAIABC EDI Release 3 Implementation Guide for Claims (1/01/08). Rule 69L-56.205, F.A.C., is being added to specify the insurer requirements of reporting proof of coverage information to the Division of Workers’ Compensation for a professional employer organization or employee leasing company and its client companies. The proposed rule also adds a definition regarding the meaning of “Cancellation/Non-Renewal Effective Date”, which clarifies that such an event occurs at 12:01 a.m. on that Transaction Set Type Effective Date reported to the Division of Workers’ Compensation, or as derived by the Division of Workers’ Compensation as determined in Rule 69L-56.200, F.A.C. Additionally, the proposed rule deletes redundant language from Rule 69L-56.100, F.A.C., changes the title to fully reflect the scope of the rule, and makes clerical revisions where necessary. Rule 69L-56.330, F.A.C., which has become obsolete, is to be repealed concurrently upon adoption of these proposed amendments.

- The purpose of the proposed amendments to Rule 12C-1.013, F.A.C. (Adjusted Federal Income Defined), is to remove provisions that were held invalid by the First District Court of Appeal in Golden West Financial Corp. et al. v. Fla. Dept. of Revenue, 975 So. 2d 567 (1st Fla. DCA Feb. 19, 2008). Pursuant to this decision, corporations are permitted to share Florida net operating loss carryovers on a consolidated return.
Section 220.68, F.S., previously allowed financial organizations to take a credit for the amount of intangible tax paid against the amount of the franchise tax due. Section 8, Chapter 98-132, L.O.F., provides that the tax credit is no longer available for tax years beginning after December 31, 1999. The repeal of Rule 12C-1.068, F.A.C. (Intangible Tax Credit; Additional Tax Due), will remove the rule provisions regarding this tax credit.

- a Routine Variance for Chapter 61C-4.010(6); Florida Administrative Code was received on September 5, 2008, from Deluna Lanes located in Pensacola. The above referenced F.A.C. states … the physical facilities at public food service establishments shall be subject to the provisions of Chapter 6, Food Code…. Specifically, the Petitioner requests to have exposed joists in the ceiling of the bar area.
This variance request was approved contingent upon the Petitioner having exposed studs, joists or rafters inside bar ceiling only. The studs, joists and rafters shall be smooth, nonabsorbent, easily cleanable and maintained in good repair. Food preparation is limited to drink preparation only including the scooping of ice; there will be no other food service activities including slicing of fruit, shucking, peeling, warewashing, etc. If the surface of the studs, joists or rafters or the covering between these structures become weathered and/or cracked rendering them uncleanable, the variance will be rescinded and a properly finished ceiling will be required. Any violation of the variance is the equivalent of a violation of the Rule and may result in a rescission of the variance, and subject the Petitioner to disciplinary sanctions as enumerated in Sec. 509.261, Florida Statutes.

- the Leesburg Fire Department, Lieutenant Steve Painter, on or about November 26, 2008.; Chapter 31-3.4.1.1 mandates that all apartment buildings with more than three stories or with more than 11 dwelling units shall be provided with a fire alarm system. The properties affected are located at 2311 Griffin Road, Leesburg, FL 34748 and 815 Washington Street Leesburg, FL 34748. The buildings are existing and due to the type of tenants living in these apartments, the required initiation devices will create a malicious false alarm problem. Also, the construction type under the Florida Building Code is a IIIB, which basically is solid concrete including floor/ceiling assembly. Though the code doesn't consider this in the equation, could it have any importance in the final decision?
