  1. State Farm Mut. Auto. Ins. Co. v. B&A Diagnostic, Inc.

    145 F. Supp. 3d 1154 (S.D. Fla. 2015)   Cited 17 times
    The Radiological Personnel Certification Act (“RPCA”) provides the legal framework for the use of radiation and radiation-emitting equipment in Florida. Fla. Stat. §§ 468.3001 et seq. It is unlawful under the RPCA for a person to use radiation, practice radiologic technology, or perform any of the duties of a radiologic assistant unless they are “the holder of a certificate ... and [are] operating under the direct supervision or general supervision of a licensed practitioner in each particular case.” Fla. Stat. § 468.302(1)(b). For purposes of the RPCA, “certificate” is defined as the “certification granted and issued by the [Florida DOH].” Fla. Stat. §§ 468.301(3), (6). The certification process requires an applicant to meet several criteria including the submission of an application fee and proof of completion of certain educational requirements and courses. Fla. Stat. § 468.304. Practicing radiologic technology without an active certificate from the Florida DOH is a criminal offense. Fla. Stat. § 468.311(1).

    Moreover, the Florida Radiological Personnel Certification Act, of which Fla. Stat. § 468.302 is a part, does not mention or relate in any way to claims or payments under Medicare, Medicaid, or Tricare. Rather, the Act lists the certification and licensing requirements for persons authorized to operate radiation and nuclear medicine technology, lists grounds for disciplinary actions, and authorizes administrative and criminal penalties. See Fla. Stat. §§ 468.302, 468.3101, 468.311, 468.3115.
