What is the maximum fine for false representation of licensure in physical therapy?

  1. $500

  2. $1,000

  3. $2,000

  4. $5,000

The correct answer is: $1,000

The maximum fine for false representation of licensure in physical therapy is established to enforce the integrity of the profession. A fine of $1,000 serves both as a deterrent against unethical practices and as a corrective measure for those who may misrepresent their qualifications. This amount emphasizes the seriousness with which regulatory authorities view the use of fraudulent credentials, as such misrepresentation can undermine public trust and patient safety in healthcare practices. By implementing this financial penalty, Florida law seeks to maintain high standards within the physical therapy field and ensure that all practitioners are properly qualified and licensed.
