NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Board of Dentistry has received the petition for declaratory statement from Michael J. Jumber, D.M.D. The petition seeks the agency's opinion as to the applicability of Section 466.024, Florida Statutes, as it applies to the petitioner.
The Notice of Petition for Declaratory Statement was published in Vol. 37, No. 17, of the April 29, 2011, Florida Administrative Weekly. The petition seeks the Board’s interpretation of Section 466.024, Florida Statutes, and asks whether a dentist may perform HgA1C diabetes screening in the dental office by auxiliaries, under Chapter 466, Florida Statutes. The Board considered the petition at its meeting held on May 20, 2011, in Jacksonville, Florida. The Board’s Order, filed on June 2, 2011, declined to issue a declaratory statement in response to this petition because the petition is not in substantial compliance with Section 120.565, Florida Statutes.
A copy of the Petition for Declaratory Statement may be obtained by contacting: Sue Foster, Executive Director, Board of Dentistry, 4052 Bald Cypress Way, Bin #C08, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3258.
