Which ORI number do healthcare workers use for Florida fingerprinting?

It depends on your specific role and employer. CNAs and home health aides working for AHCA-regulated employers should confirm the AHCA ORI with their employer. Nurses seeking RN/LPN licensure through FDOH typically use EDOH4420Z. Disability support workers typically use EAPDGN10Z. EMTs should confirm their ORI directly with the FDOH Bureau of EMS. Your employer or licensing board will confirm the correct ORI for your position.

Do I need AHCA fingerprinting AND FDOH fingerprinting?

Possibly. AHCA fingerprinting is for your employment clearance at regulated healthcare facilities. FDOH fingerprinting is for your professional license (e.g., nursing, pharmacy, therapy). Some healthcare workers need both. Each is a separate fingerprint submission with a different ORI number and fee.

How much does healthcare worker fingerprinting cost in Florida?

AHCA and FDOH fingerprinting at Sky Bright LiveScan each cost $105. APD fingerprinting is $90. If your role requires multiple agency submissions, each is priced separately. No hidden fees.

Can I work at a Florida healthcare facility before my background check clears?

This depends on your employer and the specific agency. Some AHCA-regulated employers allow provisional employment pending AHCA Clearinghouse results. However, most require clearance before direct client contact. Check with your employer's HR and compliance team.

What is the AHCA Clearinghouse and do all healthcare workers need it?

The AHCA Background Screening Clearinghouse is the Florida system where AHCA-regulated employers verify employee clearances. If you work at an ALF, home health agency, nursing home, or other AHCA-regulated setting, your employer will likely require your clearance to appear in the Clearinghouse. Read our full AHCA Clearinghouse guide for more detail.
