period allowed for payment. Such penalty shall be in addition to actual payments owed and shall not exceed fifteen (15%)

writing to the provider. If applicable, the department may employ the default provisions in Rule 60A-1.006(3), FAC. Waiver of
breach of any provisions of this contract shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any other breach and shall not be construed to be
a modification of the terms and conditions of this contract. The provisions herein do not limit the department's right to remedies
at law or in equity.
4. Failure to have performed any contractual obligations with the department in a manner satisfactory to the department will
be a sufficient cause for termination. To be terminated as a provider under this provision, the provider must have: (1) previously
failed to satisfactorily perform in a contract with the department, been notified by the department of the unsatisfactory
performance, and failed to correct the unsatisfactory performance to the satisfaction of the department; or (2) had a contract
terminated by the department for cause.

without the provision of community-based services.
(4) Direct Service Providers - Private, for-profit, or nonprofit or government
agencies that provide direct service support to eligible clients. Direct services
range from the provision of health services delivered by physicians, nurses,

worker and personal care aides. The direct service provider may provide one or
more aspects of care. The direct service provider may also choose to deliver
