by Health and Human Services Committee; Health Care Appropriations Subcommittee; Healthcare Regulation Subcommittee; and Rep. Tramont and others (CS/CS/SB 452 by Fiscal Policy Committee; Appropriations Committee on Health and Human Services; and Senators Harrell and Avila)
The bill creates the Home Health Aides for Medically Fragile Children program to help
ameliorate the impact of the shortage of health care workers on medically fragile children. The
bill requires the Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA), in consultation with the Board
of Nursing (BON), to approve any training program created by a home health agency (HHA) that
meets the federal standards for a nurse aide training program and which is meant to train family
caregivers as home health aides for medically fragile children (aide).
The bill requires that such a training program must consist of at least 85 hours of training in
specified topics and allows a HHA to employ a family caregiver as an aide if he or she has
completed the training program and met other specified criteria, including background screening.
The bill also requires an aide to complete HIV/AIDS and cardiopulmonary resuscitation training
and requires the employing HHA to ensure that the aide has 12 hours of in-service training every
12 months. The bill grants civil immunity to a HHA that terminates or denies employment to an
aide who fails to maintain the requirements of the section or whose name appears on a criminal
screening report.
The bill allows the AHCA, in consultation with the BON, to adopt rules to implement the bill
and requires the AHCA to assess the program annually and to modify the Medicaid state plan
and implement any federal waivers necessary to implement the program.
The bill amends ss. 400.489, 400.490, and 464.0156, F.S., to allow registered nurses to delegate
tasks to aides and amends s. 408.822, F.S., to require aides to be included in the direct care
workforce survey.
The bill requires the AHCA to establish a Medicaid fee schedule for HHAs employing an aide at
$25 per hour with a utilization cap of no more than eight hours per day.
The bill authorizes four full-time equivalent (FTE) positions and $353,589 in recurring funds and
$118,728 in nonrecurring funds from the Health Care Trust Fund in Fiscal Year 2023-2024 to the
AHCA to implement the bill.
If approved by the Governor, or allowed to become law without the Governor’s signature, these
provisions take effect upon becoming law.
