PRESS RELEASE


MacData Background Screening grows along with customer needs by updating LiveScan digital fingerprinting software


Daytona Beach, FL January 16, 2013: MacData, a local background screening company, announced an update of their LiveScan digitial fingerprinting software, in order to comply with the new state regulations requiring photo submission.

The Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA), who regulates all employees in state health facilities, is the first state agency to require submission of a photograph at the time fingerprints are submitted. Additional states agencies, including the Department of Children and Families (DCF) and the Department of Elder Affairs (DOEA) are expected to follow suit within the coming months.

“Since a vast majority of our client base is in health care, child care and elderly care, we decided to make the investment in updating our software and acquiring the necessary equipment to comply with state regulation and provide the service conveniently for our clients.” said Mark Venables, owner of MacData Background Screening.

Per state regulation, employees working in various fields including health care, elderly, disabled or child care and schools must pass a comprehensive state and national background check prior to employment. 

Fingerprints are digitally scanned and transmitted to Florida Department of Law Enforcement for a statewide search and then onto the FBI for a nationwide search. Results are then returned to the regulatory agency for employment determination.

MacData Background Screening, locally owned and operated in Daytona Beach, FL, provides consumers with a range of tools to make informed decisions. They offer a variety of customizable pre-employment and tenant screening options and LiveScan digital fingerprinting for statutory- regulated agencies.
