A news article was recently published on the
authorization procedures for compounded drugs in the 2016 Edition of the
Florida Workers' Compensation Health Care Provider Reimbursement Manual (HCPRM)
that went into effect on July 1, 2017.
The information contained in the article may have led to a
misunderstanding of the applicability of this new provision in the HCPRM. The HCPRM defines the dispensing of
compounded drugs, regardless of the cost of the compounded drugs, as a
specialty service under paragraph 440.13(3)(i), F.S. . For
any further questions related to this subject or other medical service topics,

Meet the Regulators at WCI 2017
The Florida Division of Workers' Compensation, in
conjunction with the Workers' Compensation Institute, is pleased to provide the
opportunity for attendees to individually meet and speak with Division staff at
the 72nd Annual Workers' Compensation Educational Conference about regulatory
issues that are important to your company. This year we will offer two options for stakeholder assistance "Ask
The Regulator" and "EDI On Demand."
Ask The Regulator: These one-one-one meetings will help maximize your time at the
conference and provide the Division with an informal setting to interact with
workers' compensation stakeholders. The
meetings will be held on Tuesday, August 8, between 8:30 am - 11:30 am in the
Tampa room at the Orlando World Center Marriott. Go to Florida DWC regulator (www.wci360.com/conference/ask-the-regulators)
to schedule an appointment and identify the issues you would like to discuss
with the Division. This will ensure that
the Division has the appropriate staff available to answer your questions. An email will be sent to you confirming the
time.
EDI On Demand: These EDI Triage & Training sessions are available upon email
request and will provide access to Division staff on any EDI related issues and
processes. Please email Lisel.Laslie@myfloridacfo.com
to request a session. The meetings will
be held on Tuesday, August 8, in the St. Louis room at the Orlando World Center
Marriott. An email will be sent to you
confirming your meeting time.
