The Florida Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA) on Tuesday
issued a memo attempting to fix a flaw in the new PIP law. In the memo,
AHCA General Counsel Stuart Williams outlines legal reasoning why the
Agency “believes that the Act applies the same effective date of January
1, 2013 to both” the new requirement for clinic licensure and the list
of providers exempted from it (MD, DO, DC, dentists, hospitals, medical
schools, etc.)
