Florida OIR-B1-1571 PIP Disclosure & Acknowledgement

Florida's personal injury protection (PIP) law requires this standard disclosure at the initial treatment after a motor vehicle accident. The insured patient affirms the billed services were rendered and explained, and the licensed professional who rendered them, or the medical director, certifies no solicitation, informed consent, a complete bill and proper coding. The original goes to the PIP insurer with the bill, and a claim sent without it may not be paid.

Who completes it

The insured person, or the guardian of the insured person, signs the patient affirmations (statements 1 to 5). The licensed medical professional who rendered the treatment, or the medical director if applicable, affirms statements A to D and signs by his or her own hand, with printed name and date.

How to fill it in

Insured person affirmations (statements 1 to 5)

The insured person, or the guardian of the insured person, affirms that the services or treatment listed were actually rendered, meaning already provided rather than planned. Enter those services in the fields under statement 1 so they match the accompanying bill. The insured also affirms the right and duty to confirm services were provided, that nobody solicited them to seek care from this provider, and that the provider explained the services being billed. Statement 5 tells the insured that reporting a billing error to the insurer in writing may entitle them to a share of any reduction in the amount paid.

Insured Person (patient receiving treatment or services) or Guardian of Insured Person

The patient who received the treatment or services, or the guardian, prints or types a name, signs and dates. This block sits above the professional's block on the same page, so one form carries both signatures to the insurer. The patient's own signature confirms the services were rendered and explained, and a 'signature on file' notation is not accepted in its place.

Licensed medical professional or medical director affirmations (A to D)

The professional affirms statement 1 and four more: (A) no solicitation of the insured, or causing the insured to be solicited, to claim PIP benefits; (B) the services were explained well enough for the insured to sign with informed consent; (C) the accompanying bill is properly completed in all material provisions, with every request for information answered truthfully, accurately and substantially completely; (D) the procedure coding is proper, with no upcoding, unbundling, or invalid or not medically necessary diagnostic test as defined in the cited Florida Statutes.

Licensed Medical Professional Rendering Treatment/Services or Medical Director, if applicable (Signature by his/her own hand)

Print or type the professional's name, sign by hand and date. The caption requires a signature by the professional's own hand, so a stamped signature or a 'signature on file' entry does not meet it. Sign only after reviewing the bill that accompanies the form, because statements C and D vouch for its completeness and coding.

Fraud warning and note on furnishing the original

The form closes with the warning that knowingly filing a claim containing false, incomplete or misleading information with intent to injure, defraud or deceive an insurer is a third-degree felony under section 817.234(1)(b), Florida Statutes. The note below it states that the original must be furnished to the insurer under section 627.736(4)(b), may not be furnished electronically, and that failure to furnish it may result in non-payment of the claim.

Common mistakes

  • Sending a scan, fax image or other electronic copy instead of the original; the form's note says it may not be furnished electronically.
  • Using a stamped signature or a 'signature on file' notation in place of the treating professional's signature by his or her own hand.
  • Listing services that have not yet been provided; statement 1 covers only services actually rendered, which the patient and the professional both affirm.
  • Signing without checking the accompanying bill, even though statements C and D certify its completeness and that no service was upcoded or unbundled.
  • Leaving the printed name or the date blank in either the insured person's or the licensed professional's signature block.

Submitting and payment

How to submit it
Furnish the original, hand-signed form to the PIP insurer with the bill (CMS-1500 or UB-04). The form's note says it may not be furnished electronically, and a 'signature on file' notation is not accepted.
Who pays
No fee attaches to the form itself; it is a condition of PIP payment for the accompanying bill, and the form warns that failure to furnish it may result in non-payment of the claim.

Good to know

  • Emergency department and ambulance services are exempt from this form. Other providers billing PIP for the initial treatment or service need the signed original to reach the insurer.
  • The Office of Insurance Regulation publishes the form only as a Word document (.doc), not a PDF. It is spelled 'Acknowledgement' on the form and in Rule 69O-176.013, F.A.C.
  • Statement D cross-references the statutory definitions of upcoding, unbundling and invalid or not medically necessary diagnostic tests in sections 627.732(14) and (15) and 627.736(5)(b)6, Florida Statutes.
  • The insurer sends its own notice to the insured, OIR-B1-1149 Notification of Personal Injury Protection Benefits. OIR-B1-1571 is the provider-side form that travels with the bill.

Frequently asked questions

Can Florida form OIR-B1-1571 be signed electronically?

No. The note at the bottom of the form says the original must be furnished to the insurer under section 627.736(4)(b), Florida Statutes, and may not be furnished electronically. The professional's block is captioned 'Signature by his/her own hand,' and a 'signature on file' notation is not accepted. Print the Word form, complete it, and have both parties sign in ink.

Who signs the provider section of the Florida PIP disclosure form?

The licensed medical professional who rendered the treatment or services signs it, or the medical director if applicable. By signing, that person affirms the services were actually rendered, that the insured was not solicited, that the services were explained well enough for informed consent, and that the accompanying bill and its procedure coding are proper.

Is OIR-B1-1571 needed for emergency room visits?

No. Emergency department and ambulance services are exempt from the standard disclosure and acknowledgement requirement. The form applies to the initial treatment or service billed to PIP by other providers, where the insured patient and the treating professional both sign at the first visit after the accident.

What happens if the disclosure form is missing from a PIP claim?

The form itself states that failure to furnish it may result in non-payment of the claim. Because the insurer needs the original, keep the signed paper form with the initial bill and send it together with the CMS-1500 or UB-04 rather than as a scanned or electronic attachment.
