How MyHealthForm.com Works — And How It Fully Complies With AHCA Standard G0151
Florida requires every independent caregiver referred by a nurse registry to provide current documentation that they are free from communicable diseases. For many caregivers, this has historically meant expensive in-person health visits, inconsistent forms, and long delays.
MyHealthForm.com was built to solve all of that.
Fast. Affordable. Clear. Compliant.
Below is a simple breakdown of how the system works — and how every step aligns with the legal requirements in F.A.C. 59A-18.005(6) and F.S. 400.506(6)(a) (the basis of AHCA Standard G0151 – Communicable Disease).
Why This Matters: What G0151 Requires
AHCA surveyors cite G0151 when a registry fails to obtain a valid communicable-disease clearance.
The law is extremely clear:
Caregivers must provide a statement that they are “free from communicable diseases.”
This statement must be issued by:
A licensed physician (Ch. 458 / 459), or
PA/ARNP, or
A Registered Nurse acting pursuant to a physician-signed protocol.
The statement must be dated within the last 6 months.
This exact requirement appears in both the statute and the administrative code:
F.A.C. 59A-18.005(6): caregivers must furnish a signed statement from an allowed provider “that the contractor is free from communicable diseases.”
F.S. 400.506(6)(a): each person referred by a registry “must provide current documentation that he or she is free from communicable diseases.”
AHCA’s ST-G0151 repeats this requirement verbatim.
Importantly, the 2015 revision removed the phrase “based upon an examination”, meaning the state no longer requires a physical exam. A structured screening completed under a physician protocol is sufficient.
This change opened the door for a modern, structured, and compliant online process—exactly what MyHealthForm.com provides.
The MyHealthForm.com Compliance Framework
MyHealthForm.com was designed from the ground up to mirror the exact structure of the law and the screening tools already used by major health institutions. The process is not a shortcut. It is a clean, auditable, physician-approved system built specifically to satisfy G0151.
Here is how it works:
Step 1: The Caregiver Completes a Physician-Approved Screening Questionnaire
MyHealthForm.com uses a communicable-disease questionnaire modeled directly after established tools currently in use by large private and state institutions.
These tools form the basis of the MyHealthForm Communicable Disease Screening Tool.
Using the screening tool, the caregiver must answer specific questions regarding:
Symptoms
Exposure risks
Recent travel
TB risks
Vaccination gaps
If any answers indicate concern, clearance is not issued.
This mirrors the protocol structure used nationwide and gives AHCA a familiar, defensible process.
Step 2: An RN Reviews the Questionnaire Under a Physician-Signed Protocol
MyHealthForm.com uses a formal communicable disease screening protocol reviewed/signed by a licensed physician.
Under the protocol:
The RN (Scott Strachan, RN #9224129
Reviews each screening form
Determines if the caregiver is “clinically free from communicable disease.”
Issues or denies clearance
Refers caregivers with symptoms/exposures for medical evaluation
This satisfies the statutory requirement that an RN may sign the clearance only when acting under an established physician protocol, which is exactly what the protocol defines.
Step 3: If Passed, the RN Issues an Official “Free From Communicable Disease” Statement
The final document is the Free From Communicable Disease Health Statement.
It includes:
The statutory citation (59A-18.005(6); 400.506(6)(a))
The caregiver’s identifying information
The RN’s signature and license number
A declaration that the RN is “acting pursuant to an established protocol signed by a licensed physician”
A 6-month expiration date (required by law)

This matches exactly what the law requires:
A written, dated statement from an authorized provider declaring the caregiver free from communicable diseases.
Nothing more. Nothing less.
Step 4: Automated Storage, Access, and Reminders
Once completed:
The caregiver receives a digital PDF of their clearance
It is stored securely in their MyHealthForm.com account
Caregivers receive automated reminders before expiration
Registries may verify the document’s validity directly on MyHealthForm.com
This ensures documentation is available, consistent, auditable, and compliant — a major improvement over paper forms used historically.
Why This Model Satisfies AHCA Standard G0151
AHCA looks for five things during a survey.
MyHealthForm.com meets all five:
1. Was the clearance issued by an allowed provider?
Yes.
The clearance is signed by an RN acting under a physician-signed protocol, exactly as allowed:
“Registered nurse … acting pursuant to an established protocol signed by a licensed physician.”
2. Was the process completed within the last 6 months?
Yes.
The final statement clearly states:
“Health statement expires 6 months after completion.”
3. Does the process assess communicable disease risk?
Yes.
The screening incorporates evidence-based symptom/exposure risk assessments widely regarded systems:
This is exactly how hospitals, health departments, and large systems assess communicable disease clearance.
4. Is the RN acting under a physician-approved protocol?
Yes.
The Communicable Disease Protocol establishes:
Physician review
RN role
Referral criteria
Documentation parameters
Statement issuance rules
5. Does the registry receive documentation stating “free from communicable diseases”?
Yes.
The final certificate states:
“To the best of my knowledge… this caregiver is Free From Communicable Disease.”
That is precisely what the law requires.
