Attachment II, Core Contract Provisions, Section XVI, Terms and Conditions, Item HH., Communications is hereby included as follows:
HH.
Notwithstanding any term or condition of this Contract to the contrary, the Health Plan bears sole responsibility for ensuring that its performance of this Contract (and that of its’ subcontractors related to this Contract) fully complies with all state and federal law governing the monitoring, interception, recording, use or disclosure of wire, oral or electronic communications, including but not limited to the Florida Security of Communications Act, §§ 934.01, et seq., F.S., and the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, 18 U.S.C. § 2510 et seq. (hereafter, collectively, “Communication Privacy Laws”). Prior to intercepting, recording or monitoring any communications which are subject to Communication Privacy Laws, the Health Plan must: (1) submit a plan which specifies in detail the manner in which the Health Plan (and its’ subcontractors related to this contract) will ensure that such actions are in full compliance with Communication Privacy Laws (the “Privacy Compliance Plan”); and (2) obtain written approval, signed and stamped by the Agency Contract Manager, approving the Privacy Compliance Plan. No modifications to an approved Privacy Compliance Plan may be implemented by the Health Plan unless an amended Privacy Compliance Plan is submitted to the Agency, and written approval

AHCA Contract No. FA971, Amendment No. 9, Page 6 of 7



of the amended Privacy Compliance Plan is signed and notarized by the Agency Contract Manager. Agency approval of the Health Plan’s Privacy Compliance Plan in no way constitutes a representation by the Agency that the Compliance Plan is in full compliance with applicable Communication Privacy Laws, or otherwise shifts or diminishes the Health Plan’s sole burden to ensure full compliance with applicable Communication Privacy Laws in all aspects of the Health Plan’s performance of this Contract. Violation of this term may result in sanctions to include termination of the contract and/or liquidated damages.
Unless otherwise stated, this Amendment shall be effective upon execution by both Parties.
All provisions not in conflict with this Amendment are still in effect and are to be performed at the level specified in this Contract.
This Amendment and all its attachments are hereby made part of this Contract.
This Amendment cannot be executed unless all previous amendments to this Contract have been fully executed.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties hereto have caused this ten (10) page Amendment (including all attachments) to be executed by their officials thereunto duly authorized.
