Open a MD/DO practice in Florida
This page collects the Florida rules that decide how a physician (md or do) can own and run a practice. Each rule shows the statute, board rule or agency page it comes from and the date we last checked it.
Where a topic says "not yet verified", we have not finished checking it against the primary source. Use the board link for that topic until we do.
General information, not legal advice. Rules change — confirm each requirement with the board or agency that issues it before you act.
