Notice of Proposed Rule

Department:

DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH

Division:

Division of Emergency Preparedness and Community Support

Chapter:

Trauma

Overview

RULE:

64J-2.010	Apportionment of Trauma Centers Among the Trauma Service Areas (TSA) (Repealed)
64J-2.012	Process for the Approval of Trauma Centers
64J-2.013	Extension of Application Period (Repealed)
64J-2.016	Site Visits and Approval

PURPOSE:

The Department proposes to amend these rules to develop an inclusive, sustainable trauma system that allocates trauma center need necessary to establish reasonable access to high quality trauma services.

SUMMARY:

The rule allocates the minimum trauma center need for all trauma service areas (TSAs) around the state, revises the process and standards for selecting trauma centers, and clarifies that an allocation of minimum need  under rule 64J-2.010 does not affect the ability of an existing verified trauma center to renew its certificate to operate as a trauma center. The rule also removes hearing rights provisions that are redundant to provisions in Chapter 120, Florida Statutes.
