What are the requirements for terminating a collaborative agreement in Florida?

In Florida, the requirements for terminating a collaborative agreement are straightforward: when an APRN–physician supervisory protocol (the collaborative agreement) ends, the physician must notify the Florida Board of Medicine within 30 days of the termination1. This notice duty resides with the physician, not the APRN.

Physicians must likewise notify the Board within 30 days when entering a new supervisory protocol1. The Board of Nursing no longer receives, reviews, or maintains protocol documents—physicians simply advise how many APRNs they supervise2. APRN supervisory protocols must also be maintained on-site at the practice locations where the APRN works3.
