CLAIM FOR REIMBURSEMENT AGAINST THE SPECIAL DISABILITY TRUST FUND

Overview

RULE:

69L-10.006	Definitions
69L-10.012	Review of Proof of Claim
69L-10.015	Deemed Denial - 120 Day Time Period
69L-10.016	Documenting Expenditures for Purposes of Obtaining Reimbursement
69L-10.017	Reimbursement to Subsequent Employer (Repealed)
69L-10.019	Forms

PURPOSE:

To revise forms to comply with Section 119.071(5), F.S. (2007), that precludes an agency from collecting an individual’s social security number unless such collection conforms to specified provisions of that statute. Forms SDF-1 (Proof of Claim), and SDF-2 (Reimbursement Request), incorporated by reference in Rule 69L-10.019, F.A.C., are renumbered, and amended so that the collection of the social security number is discontinued. Form SDF-6 (Explanation of Benefits), incorporated by reference in Rule 69L-10.016, F.A.C., is renumbered, and amended so that the collection of the social security number is discontinued. In lieu of social security numbers, the revised forms shall utilize an “SDTF Claim Number” for purposes of identifying and tracking claims. Rule 69L-10.017, F.A.C., is deleted, as there is no statutory authority for the reimbursements prescribed in the rule. In addition, Form SDF-5 (Claim for Reimbursement for Salary), incorporated by reference in Rule 69L-10.019, F.A.C., is deleted from the rule for the same reason. Finally, Rule 69L-10.006, F.A.C., is amended to reflect the renumbering of Form SDF-6 to DFS-F1-SDF-6. Rule 69L-10.012, F.A.C., and Rule 69L-10.015, F.A.C., are amended to reflect the renumbering of Form SDF-1 to DFS-F1-SDF-1 and to amend the rules specific authority. Rule 69L-10.016, F.A.C., is amended to reflect the renumbering of Form SDF-2 to DFS-F1-SDF-2 and also amends the rule’s specific authority.

SUMMARY:

Deletes Rule 69L-10.017, F.A.C., revises forms to eliminate the collection of social security numbers, and deletes other obsolete forms.
