Series: FTCA CY 2020 Deeming Application

Many health centers take part in the professional liability coverage offered under the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA). From submitting the initial application for “deemed” status to implementing the program components and preparing for a site visit, the FTCA program can be complicated and confusing. Failing to comply with the FTCA program requirements can be costly for health centers and providers who can be left without any malpractice insurance.

Join us for a two-part webinar series for an overview of the FTCA program and the redeeming process. Whether this is your first time or your 20th submitting a deeming application, this series will be invaluable to submitting a successful application for CY 2020.

REMINDER: HRSA’s EHB system will begin receiving CY 2020 deeming applications on May 17, 2019. All currently deemed grantees must submit a redeeming application (including applications for any subrecipients) on or before July 1, 2019 in order to be eligible to be deemed for the entirety of CY 2020 without a gap in coverage.

Certificates of Attendance: We verify attendance upon completion of a webinar (live or recorded version) and will only issue certificates in the name of the account holder enrolled in the course. If you need to document attendance for someone other than the account holder, we provide blank Certificates of Attendance for a supervisor to sign and certify that a different individual viewed the course. 

Group Attendance: Due to the online nature of webinars, we cannot verify participation by more than one person. For groups, we provide an attendance record form and blank Certificates of Attendance to record attendance at a group viewing session and document each individual's participation. We recommend that a supervisor or colleague sign the certificate to certify attendance.
