See Florida Statutes 641.402
The provisions of this part do not apply to those prepaid health clinics providing the services defined in ss. 641.40641.459, which clinics have been continuously engaged in providing such services since January 1, 1947, provided that any prepaid health clinic claiming an exemption under this section notified the former Department of Insurance of its claim on or before January 1, 1985. This exemption will terminate upon a change in controlling ownership of the organization.
