PER CURIAM.
The parties concede that section 768.56, Florida Statutes (1983), does not apply to this case because the cause of action accrued prior to the statute’s effective date. Therefore, the $13,220 award of attorney’s fees is reversed based on Young v. Altenhaus, 472 So.2d 1152 (Fla.1985), and Florida Patient’s Compensation Fund v. Rowe, 472 So.2d 1145 (Fla.1985).
REVERSED and REMANDED.
COBB, C.J., and DAUKSCH and FRANK D. UPCHURCH, JR., JJ., concur.
