About this file

This document is Amendment No. 5 to Contract No. FP083 between the State of Florida, Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA), and CARESPlus Health Plans, Inc., a managed care organization. The amendment modifies an existing contract governing Medicare and Medicaid services, specifically focusing on D-SNP (Dual-Eligible Special Needs Plan) capitation rates and administrative agreements.

The amendment updates Attachment I, Scope of Services, specifically Exhibit C, which details the D-SNP Capitation Rates effective January 1, 2025. The capitation rates vary by region, with different rates for Qualified Medicare Beneficiary (QMB) categories and QMB Plus/SLMB Plus/FBDE categories. Rates range from $8.66 to $36.11 for QMB categories and $49.48 to $111.36 for QMB Plus categories across different Florida regions. The amendment also replaces the Business Associate Agreement (Attachment II) with a new version (Attachment II-A) and incorporates Attachment V, which includes agency-approved modifications to the standard contract, such as vendor certification requirements and compliance provisions.

The Vendor shall make its internal practices, books, and records relating to the use and disclosure of protected health information received from, or created or received by the Vendor on behalf of the Agency, available to the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services ("HHS") or the Secretary's designee for purposes of determining compliance with the HHS Privacy Regulations.

11. Reporting. The Vendor shall make a good faith effort to identify any use or disclosure, or loss of confidentiality, integrity, or availability, of protected health information, ore-PHI, not provided for in this Contract.

a. To Agency. The Vendor will report to the Agency in the manner and format obtained from the Contract Manager or Agency contact, within ten (10) business days of discovery, any use or disclosure, or loss of confidentiality, integrity, or availability, of protected health information, ore-PHI, not provided for in this Contract of which the Vendor is aware. The Vendor will report to the Agency in the manner and format obtained from the Contract Manager or Agency contact, within twenty-four (24) hours of discovery, any security incident of which the Vendor is aware. A violation of this paragraph shall be a material violation of this Contract. Such notice shall include the identification of each individual whose unsecured protected health information has been or is reasonably believed by the Vendor to have been, accessed, acquired, used, or disclosed during such breach.

b. To Individuals. In the case of a breach of protected health information discovered by the Vendor, the Vendor shall first notify the Agency of the pertinent details of the breach and upon prior review by the Agency shall notify each individual whose unsecured protected health information has been or is reasonably believed by the Vendor to have been, accessed, acquired, used or disclosed as a result of such breach. Such notification shall be in writing by first-class mail to the individual (or the next of kin if the individual is deceased) at the last known address of the individual or next of kin, respectively, or, if specified as a preference by the individual, by electronic mail. Where there is insufficient, or out-of-date contact information (including a phone number, email address, or any other form of appropriate communication) that precludes written (or, if specifically requested, electronic) notification to the individual, a substitute form of notice shall be provided, including, in the case that there are 10 or more individuals for which there is insufficient or out-of-date contact information, a conspicuous posting for a period of at least 90 days on the Web site of the covered entity involved or notice in major print or broadcast media, including major media in the geographic areas where the individuals affected by the breach likely reside. In any case deemed by the Vendor to require urgency because of possible imminent misuse of unsecured protected health information, the Vendor may also provide information to individuals by telephone or other means, as appropriate.

c. To Media. In the case of a breach of protected health information discovered by the Vendor where the unsecured protected health information of more than 500 persons is reasonably believed to have been, accessed, acquired, used, or disclosed, after prior review by the Agency, the Vendor shall provide notice to

AHCA Contract No. FP083, Attachment II-A, Page 3 of 5

prominent media outlets serving the State, relevant portion of the State, or jurisdiction involved.

d. To Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS). The Vendor shall cooperate with the Agency to provide notice to the Secretary of HHS of unsecured protected health information that has been acquired or disclosed in a breach.

i. Vendors Who Are Covered Entities. In the event of a breach by the Vendor, or a contractor or subcontractor of the Vendor, and the Vendor is a HIPM covered entity, the Vendor, not the Agency, shall be considered the covered entity for purposes of notification to the Secretary of HHS pursuant to 45 CFR 164.408. The Vendor shall be responsible for filing the notification to the Secretary of HHS and will identify itself as the covered entity in the notice. If the breach was with respect to 500 or more individuals, at least 5 business days prior to filing notice with the Secretary of HHS the Vendor shall provide a copy of the notice and breach risk assessment to the Agency for review. Upon prior review by the Agency of the notice and breach risk assessment, the Vendor shall file the notice with the Secretary of HHS within the notification timeframe imposed by 45 C.F.R. 164.408(b) and contemporaneously submit a copy of said notification to the Agency. If the breach was with respect to less than 500 individuals, the Vendor shall notify the Secretary of HHS within the notification timeframe imposed by 45 C.F.R. 164.408(c) and shall contemporaneously submit a copy of said notification to the Agency.

e. Content of Notices. All notices required under this Attachment shall include the content set forth in 42 U.S.C. 17932(f) and 45 C.F.R. 164 Subpart D, except that references therein to a "covered entity" shall be read as references to the Vendor.

f. Financial Responsibility. The Vendor shall be responsible for all costs related to the notices required under this Attachment.

g. Other Reporting. The Vendor shall comply with any other applicable reporting requirements in conformity with federal and state laws. If notifications are made under any such laws, copies of said notifications shall be provided contemporaneously to the Agency.

12. Mitigation. Vendor shall mitigate, to the extent practicable, any harmful effect that is known to the Vendor of a use or disclosure of protected health information in violation of this Attachment.

13. Termination. Upon the Agency's discovery of a material breach of this Attachment, the Agency shall have the right to assess liquidated damages as specified elsewhere in the contract to which this Attachment is included, and/or to terminate this Contract.

14. Effect of Termination. At the termination of this Contract, the Vendor shall return all protected health information that the Vendor still maintains in any form, including any copies or hybrid or merged databases made by the Vendor; or with prior written approval of the Agency, the protected health information may be destroyed by the Vendor after its use. If the protected health information is destroyed pursuant to the Agency's prior written

AHCA Contract No. FP083, Attachment II-A, Page 4 of 5

BUSINESS ASSOCIATE AGREEMENT

approval, the Vendor must provide a written confirmation of such destruction to the Agency. If return or destruction of the protected health information is determined not feasible by the Agency, the Vendor agrees to protect the protected health information and treat it as strictly confidential.
