Bill No. CS for CS for SB 370
Amendment No. ___ Barcode 512324
1 2. Entities exempt from federal taxation under 26
2 U.S.C. s. 501(c)(3) and community college and university
3 clinics.
4 3. Sole proprietorships, group practices,
5 partnerships, or corporations that provide health care
6 services by licensed health care practitioners pursuant to
7 chapters 457, 458, 459, 460, 461, 462, 463, 466, 467, 484,
8 486, 490, 491, or part I, part III, part X, part XIII, or part
9 XIV of chapter 468, or s. 464.012, which are wholly owned by
10 licensed health care practitioners or the licensed health care
11 practitioner and the spouse, parent, or child of a licensed
12 health care practitioner, so long as one of the owners who is
13 a licensed health care practitioner is supervising the
14 services performed therein and is legally responsible for the
15 entity's compliance with all federal and state laws. However,
16 no health care practitioner may supervise the delivery of
17 health care services beyond the scope of the practitioner's
18 license. This section does not prohibit a health care
19 practitioner from providing administrative or managerial
20 supervision for personnel purposes.
21 (4)(a) All charges or reimbursement claims made by or
22 on behalf of a clinic that is required to be registered under
23 this section, but that is not so registered, are unlawful
24 charges and therefore are noncompensable and unenforceable. An
25 insurer may not delay payment of or deny a claim submitted by
26 a sole proprietorship, group practice, partnership or
27 corporation that is exempt under this section without
28 reasonable proof that it is required to be registered under
29 this section.
