Current through Reg. 50, No. 138; July 16, 2024
(1) Submission of data files for all
				ambulatory centers must be in compliance with Rules
				59B-9.030 through
				59B-9.039, F.A.C. The executive
				officer, administrator, or authorized designee shall certify the data quarterly
				as accurate, complete and verifiable by completing the electronic certification
				in FDDC. The electronic certification attests the ambulatory patient data file
				has been examined and, to the best of the submitter's knowledge and belief, the
				information contained in this data file is true, accurate, and complete, and
				has been prepared from the books and records of this ambulatory center. The
				data is considered "certified" for the reporting quarter upon completion of the
				facility's electronic certification.
(2) A facility whose data file is not
				certified within five (5) calendar months following the last day of the
				reporting quarter shall be subject to penalties pursuant to Rule
				59B-9.036, F.A.C. A facility
				will not be penalized for delays caused by the Agency that are documented by
				the reporting facility to include online reporting system downtime.
(3) Changes or corrections to certified data
				may be accepted from a facility for a period of twelve (12) months following
				the first date of the affected quarter. The Agency may grant approval if it
				determines that resubmission will significantly impact data quality. The
				facility must submit an electronic resubmission request in FDDC. The electronic
				request must explain the cause contributing to the inaccurate reporting, and
				include the reason for the corrections or changes, the total number of records
				affected by quarters and years, the data type, and the date that the

				of previously certified data must be certified within thirty (30) days
				following receipt of the data file from the facility.
(4) A facility must electronically update its
				facility contact information in FDDC when a change of the facility contact
				responsible for handling the data file submission, or the facility CEO or
				Administrator occurs. Information must include full name, title, applicable
				phone and fax numbers, and email address.

Current through Reg. 50, No. 138; July 16, 2024
(1) For purposes of this rule chapter, a
				report or other information is "incomplete" when it does not contain all data
				required by the Agency in this rule, and in forms incorporated by reference, or
				when it contains inaccurate data. The Agency shall to the extent practical,
				apply the same audit standards and use the same audit procedures for all
				facilities or audit a random sample of facilities. The Agency will notify each
				facility of any possible errors discovered by audit and request that the
				facility either correct the data or verify that the data is complete and
				correct. A report or other information is "false" if done or made with the
				knowledge of the preparer or an administrator that it contains information or
				data which is not true or accurate.
(2) An ambulatory center which refuses to
				file, fails to timely file or files false or incomplete reports or other
				information required to be filed under the provisions of Section
				408.08(2),
				F.S., other Florida Law, or a rule adopted there under, shall be subject to
				administrative fines pursuant to Section
				408.813, F.S. Failure to comply
				with reporting requirements will also result in the referral of a facility to
				the Agency's Bureau of Health Facility Regulation.
(3) Notifications will be sent to reporting
				facilities who do not submit their data file by the initial due date as
				specified in Rule 59B-9.033, F.A.C.
(4) The penalty period will begin on the
				first calendar day following the certification due date for purposes of penalty
				assessments.
(5) Any ambulatory
				center which is delinquent for a reporting deficiency other than submission of
				a false report shall be subject to a fine of $100.00 per day of violation for
				the first violation, $350.00 per day of violation for the second violation, and
				$1, 000.00 per day of violation for the third or subsequent violations.
				Following four consecutive non-delinquent quarters, the fine violation matrix
				will reset to the first violation rate. Violations will be considered those
				activities which necessitate the issuance of an administrative complaint by the
				Agency unless the administrative complaint is withdrawn or final order
				dismissing the administrative complaint is entered. All fines are to be fixed,
				imposed and collected by the Agency. Any ambulatory center which files a false
				report with the Agency or provides false information to the Agency shall be
				subject to a fine not exceeding $1, 000.00 per day per violation, in addition
				to any other fine imposed hereunder, pursuant to Section
				408.813,
				F.S.

As used in this rule, the term "appropriate oncological
				  specialty" means that where a particular kind of tumor or disease is usually
				  treated by a subspecialty group within the general discipline of oncology,
				  those who practice within that subspecialty have had specific input into the
				  decision making process. Cellular therapies include cellular immunotherapies,
				  chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells, cancer vaccines, and other types of
				  both autologous and allogeneic cells for certain therapeutic indications. Human
				  gene therapy refers to products that introduce genetic material into a person's
				  DNA to replace faulty or missing genetic material, thus treating a disease or
				  abnormal medical condition.
(1) Upon
				the recommendation of the Bone Marrow Transplant Panel, each of the following
				procedures meets a minimum level of evidence based on high quality systematic
				reviews of case control or cohort studies, high quality case-control or cohort
				studies with a very low risk of confounding bias, or chance, and a high
				probability that the relationship is causal, and is considered accepted within
				the appropriate oncological specialty and not experimental for the purposes of
				Section 627.4236, F.S.
(a) Allogeneic bone marrow transplant for the
				following:
1. Acute myelogenous leukemia and
				myeloid sarcoma;
2. Acute
				lymphoblastic leukemia;
3. Chronic
				myelogenous leukemia;
4.
				Myelodysplastic syndromes;
5.
				Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia;
6.
				Myelofibrosis;
7. Non-Hodgkin
				lymphoma;
8. Hodgkin lymphoma after
				autologous stem cell collection failure or relapsed after autologous transplant
				but not progressing on salvage chemotherapy;
9. Chronic lymphocytic leukemia;
10. Severe or very severe aplastic anemia
				from HLA compatible siblings and any type of bone marrow transplant for
				acquired severe aplastic anemia unresponsive to immunosuppression or bone
				marrow failure syndromes;
