The two parties enter into this agreement for the purpose of memorializing the resolution to this matter. 2. PROVIDER is a Medicaid provider in the State of Florida, operating under provider number 022810900. 3. In its Final Agency Audit Report, C.I. No. 05-3344-000 (the "Audit Letter"), AHCA notified PROVIDER that review of Medicaid claims performed by Medicaid Program Integrity (MPI) indicated that, in its Opinion, some claims in whole or in part were not covered by Medicaid. The Agency sought repayment of an Page 1 of 9 Case No: 06-1948MPI C.I. No. 05-3344-000 AHCA v. Fort Lauderdale Health and Rehabilitation Center Stipulation and Agreement overpayment amount of the amount of $21,355.85. The Agency had received a partial Payment in the amount of $4,394.60 towards the overpayment, leaving a net overpayment balance due in the amount of $16,961.25, In response, PROVIDER petitioned for a formal administrative hearing with the Division of Administrative Hearings, Case No. 06-1948MPTr. After the provider requested a formal hearing, AHCA reviewed additional information supplied by PROVIDER. Based upon that review, AHCA adjusted the overpayment amount to $5,360.79. The Agency has received a partial Payment in the amount of $4,394.60 towards the overpayment amount, as set forth in the preceding Paragraph above, leaving a net overpayment due in the amount of $966.19. PROVIDER has agreed to pay the net adjusted overpayment amount of $966.19 plus some of AHCA’s investigative costs in the amount of $250.00, for a total net repayment amount of $1,216.19. 4. In order to resolve this matter without further administrative proceedings, PROVIDER and AHCA expressly agree as follows: (a) AHCA will accept the payment set forth herein as settlement of the overpayment issues arising from the MPI review cited in Paragraph 3 above.

Of this amount, $966.19 is to reimburse the Medicaid Program for the net overpayment amount due, and $250.00 is to reimburse AHCA in part for investigative costs. AHCA retains the right to perform a 6-month follow-up review. PROVIDER is responsible for ensuring timely delivery of the payment. Failure to timely make the payment will render the balance due and payable immediately, with interest, and interest will continue to accrue until the entire balance is paid.
