Know the how-to of this surety bond for Medicaid providers today!

Every individual or business entity that will be enrolling in the Medicaid Program and will enter the provider agreement must submit a surety bond with a sufficient amount. This type of surety bond will be required of existing Medicaid providers as well.

 

The surety bond will serve as a protection tool for the Medicaid program, as well as the Medicaid recipients.

 

Through this surety bond, the Agency for Health Care Administration of the State of Florida will be guaranteed that the bonded Medicaid provider will perform the necessary services and supply goods in accordance with the professional regulations and the Medicaid Program.

 

Non-compliance with the relevant rules and state laws that have resulted in damages will be a clear ground for a bond claim.

 

In this case, the Obligee of the surety bond will recover the amount necessary to compensate the designated beneficiary.

 

This requirement is in pursuance of Section 409.907 of the Florida Statutes.
