DCF and APD FINGERPRINTING: DCF and APD now require the facility's OCA or License number appear in the fingerprinting file. This is so they can connect your employees to your company. If you have any difficulty generating livescan request forms, please call us. We will talk you through the process. It is our pleasure to serve as a free reference/consultant on your compliance needs. DCF, APD, Medicaid and AHCA fingerprints muse include a headshot, which is uploaded to the govt run portal. Do not fingerprint for these agencies with a company that does not provide the photo upload or your employees will not clear or be in compliance.
MEDICAID: You will find your Medicaid eligibility on the AHCA web portal approximately a week after your fingerprints are complete. In certain circumstances, like new licenses, Medicaid requires you to download your approval then upload it to the same place you uploaded your license application.
AHCA: AHCA requires anyone that comes in contact with vulnerable segments of the population to have an FBI background screening with fingerprints. Under the standard AHCA code, if you have a 90 day lapse of employment, you will be requied to be screened again. The standard AHCA code is used for administrators, home health aides, housekeeping and kitchen staff at assisted living and nursing homes.
BOARD OF NURSING AND DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH: Background screening is required every five years. This is separate from renewing your nursing license. The Board of Nursing has implemented a retention program. If you go online and renew your fingerprints before the five year anniversary and your file is complete and in order, the Board of Nursing will offer you the opportunity to pay $43.25 for your next 5 years. You should investigate your eligibility before you book a fingerprinting appointment.... you may save money and time.
CONCEALED WEAPONS PERMITS: Although we and many other livescan providers are listed on the FDLE provider website, CCW is not a service we are allowed to perform. You must present yourself at a sheriff's office or the tax collector for this service. Do not pay your fees online; the tax collector will only provide the full service including collecting your fees. Make an appointment on the tax collector website to complete the process there.
EXPUNGEMENTS: Livescan providers are not authorized to provide this fingerprinting service. You must go to your local Sheriff's dept.

EMPLOYERS: We Will Help You Avoid State Fines
**Failure to screen and re-screen employees including contract staff is a violation of state law and subject to a fine of $500 per person.**
All employees are required by law to be screened and re-screened every 5 years or sooner if there is a break in service. This must be done through your governing agency. Because of the livescan screening law change to level 2 back in August of 2010, there was a phase in period. The phase in period ended in July 2015!
AHCA and other government agencies are on a hunt to audit employers with out of date records. You don't want to be like a few of our customers who have called us too late and have had to pay steep fees to get their employees in compliance. Remember, when you hire or rehire employees that used to work for you, make sure to re-screen them if there was a lapse in employment greater than 90 days.
If you should have any questions or want to know what the state is looking for please use us as resource!!
