Terms Used In Florida Regulations 64B4-5.0015

  • Jurisdiction: (1) The legal authority of a court to hear and decide a case. Concurrent jurisdiction exists when two courts have simultaneous responsibility for the same case. (2) The geographic area over which the court has authority to decide cases.
  • Statute: A law passed by a legislature.
    (2) The range of disciplinary action for registered out-of-state telehealth providers shall be, in ascending order of severity, letter of concern, reprimand, suspension, and revocation.
    (3) A suspension may be for a definite term or may be accompanied by a corrective action plan, as stated in subsection 64B5-5.001(1), F.A.C.
    (4) A suspension for a definite term may be terminated early only upon approval of the Board. A suspension accompanied by a corrective action plan may be lifted upon successful compliance with the corrective action or otherwise determined by the Board.
    (5) A “”corrective action plan”” must accompany a suspension and includes rehabilitative provisions established by the Board which are narrowly tailored to address the conduct which resulted in the underlying disciplinary violations. In order to satisfy a corrective action plan, the Registrant must provide proof of successful completion of all provisions to the Board. A corrective action plan may follow a suspension for a definite term and require continued suspension until successful compliance with the corrective action plan. Nothing in this paragraph shall be interpreted as restricting the Board’s ability to impose a suspension for a definite term absent or accompanied by a corrective action plan.
