PURPOSE:

The Joint Administrative Procedures Committee (JAPC) is required to review administrative rules and advise agencies concerned of its findings.

JAPC notified the Bureau of Emergency Medical Services that subsection 64J-1.001(16), F.A.C., formerly subsection 64E-2.001(16), F.A.C., did not satisfy its objections when it replaced Rule 64E-2.032, F.A.C., which appeared to contravene the law implemented, Section 401.27, F.S., in certain parts. The purpose of this rule revision is to provide clarification for the EMS community regarding the Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity (COPCN) requirement for licensure and satisfy JAPC’s objections.
