Florida Medicaid Bond

Description

Title:

Florida Medicaid Bond

Text:

Florida Medicaid providers are required to have a bond. The company we have
used for this bond has raised their fee from $500 per year to $1,000. Do any
of the Florida companies on this list have a referral for me? I want to
continue to provide for Medicaid recipients but with the fee schedule where it is
and the bond requirements it is getting difficult.

Question for FAOP leadership: Why is Florida the only state that has a bond
requirement in the country? I could understand the need in unregulated states
but I am surprised that in a licensed state it is required.

Thank You,

David Falk, LPO
