Died in Health Professions & Programs Subcommittee
Summary
The bill changes Florida law so a physical therapist can follow a treatment plan they create or one given by a qualified practitioner without needing a separate practitioner to sign off, unless the care extends beyond 30 days for a new condition. Exceptions include cases diagnosed by an out‑of‑state physician or services that are purely health‑promotion, injury‑prevention, wellness or fitness. The change aims to streamline care while keeping safeguards for more complex cases.
