Florida Hospital of Orlando’s TRICARE Contract Subject to OFCCP Regulations

The Administrative Review Board of the Department of Labor has decided that Florida Hospital of Orlando’s contract with TRICARE is a federal subcontract and therefore subject to Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs regulation and oversight, according to an AHA News Now report.

The OFCCP will now be able to ensure the Orlando, Fla.-based hospital’s compliance with various affirmative action requirements, according to the report.

The decision overrides a Congressional ruling that exempts TRICARE network providers from registering as federal contractors.
