Part 1: An Overview of the FTCA Redeeming Application for CY 2024

April 4, 2023

Access the on-demand webinar here.


Nearly all health centers take part in the professional liability protection offered under the Federal Tort Claims Act program.  From submitting the initial application to be “deemed” 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 protection from malpractice claims and suits.

In this webinar, we will walk through the CY 2024 Program Assistance Letter (PAL) and discuss:

  • How to submit an FTCA deeming application
  • Significant changes to the application from prior years
  • Strategies and best practices in preparing the application
  • Common application pitfalls

Target Audience

All are welcome, but we think the webinar will be especially helpful for health center:

  • Executive staff
  • Clinical leadership
  • Human resources staff
  • Compliance staff
  • Others involved in preparation of the deeming application

Learning Objectives

After this webinar, you will be able to:

  • Understand what is required for your CY 2024 Deeming Application
  • The notable changes in the CY 2024 application
  • Recognize and avoid common application pitfalls
  • Submit your CY 2024 Deeming Application with confidence
