Data Sharing Agreement - FASAMS

The Florida Interagency Master Agreement AA386 is a comprehensive data exchange vehicle focused on supporting the Financial and Services Accountability Management System (FASAMS) project. The contract enables the Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA) and the Department of Children and Families (DCF) to share critical Medicaid and health services data, specifically facilitating the exchange of Medicaid identification numbers, encounter transaction data, and fee-for-service claims information. The primary purpose of this IDV is to support information management and fiscal accounting for substance abuse and mental health services providers, with strict confidentiality and HIPAA compliance requirements governing all data exchanges.

The master agreement was originally established on June 18, 2019, with the Department of Children and Families as the primary agency, and has since been extended through Amendment No. 2 to run until June 17, 2028. The contract is a no-cost interagency agreement specific to the State of Florida, covering three primary data delivery mechanisms: a one-time historical data request, weekly data updates, and monthly new data requests. Key personnel from both AHCA and DCF, including the Agency Agreement Manager, DCF IT Manager, and DCF Chief Information Officer, are integral to the contract's administration, with the agreement designed to be renewable and adaptable to evolving administrative needs.
