In addition, note that the new revised agreement coming from the state will cover the services for both the DD waiver and FSL waiver, consequently, please revise the legislation to mirror this change in the new agreement. Until this new agreement is in place, we will be using the old/previous agreement in order to continue to provide the services. Should you need further clarification, please feel free to contact me at any time. Although I will be out of town next week, you can email me or give me a call anytime next week. Thank you in advance for helping us. Have a great weekend! Nadia N. Arguelles-Goicoechea, Ed.S.

However, in preparing to send you the final draft you requested, I have a question. Recently, we were notified by Mr. Dean that we were approved to be an FSL wavier provider. Would the FSL wavier service require a different agreement or would the same agreement be suffice for both the big wavier and mini wavier? I ask you b/c I realized that on page 4 of the agreement towards the bottom underneath the signature lines there is a space for us indicate our DD waiver # and our FSL Waiver #, do we now add both numbers and consider this agreement for both services? Please clarify this for me at your earliest convenience. Thank you in advance for your help and guidance through this process. Nadia N. Arguelles-Goicoechea, Ed.S.

As a result, our Risk Management Department would like to revise the agreement as specified below, could you please assist us with this change so we can move forward.

Please revise the contract as follows: Page 2 of the agreement, Section C Indemnification needs to include language in accordance and subject to Section 768.28 of the Florida Statutes. The same goes for Section D Insurance which needs to reflect that the City of Miami is self insured in accordance and subject to the limitations as set forth in Section 768.28 of the Florida Statutes. This language should replace the existing paragraph on Section D. We are therefore, returning the contract pending revisions. Thanks, Terry 4
