The Florida legislature has enacted two new bills, SB2658 and SB1986, which severely impact the home health agency industry in South Florida. Both bills went into effect on July 1, 2009, and were passed for the purpose of deterring health care fraud, abuse and waste throughout the state. The bills designate Miami-Dade County as a health care fraud crisis area and call for the implementation of increased oversight and scrutiny of home health agencies ("HHAs") and other health care providers in the county.
