PURPOSE:

To amend rule language as necessary to ensure that all rules conform to statutory requirements, repeal obsolete rules, delete unnecessary and obsolete language, update references to incorporated material, and implement Florida Session Law 2018-66 related to definitions, trauma service areas, numbers, allocation and selection of trauma centers.

SUMMARY:

Proposed changes are related to statutory change, terminology clarification, revised business practices, and reduction in duplicative statutory language. Rules related to trauma center allocation are obsolete due to statutory changes and are therefore repealed. In addition, the statutory changes to the trauma center application and designation process outlined in Section 395.4025, F.S., require the repeal and amendment of related rules in this chapter.
