Before SCALES, MILLER and GORDO, JJ.
PER CURIAM.
M.M. appeals a final order entered by a hearing officer from the State of Florida Agency for Health Care Administration that approved the termination of forty hours per week of adult companion services provided to M.M. as a Medicaid benefit for the month of October 2020. We are not free to substitute our judgment for that of a hearing officer, nor may we reweigh the evidence presented at the administrative hearing. § 120.68(7)(b), (10), Fla. Stat. (2020) ; Bagarotti v. Reemployment Assistance Appeals Comm'n, 208 So. 3d 1197, 1199 (Fla. 3d DCA 2017). Our review is limited to whether the hearing officer's findings are supported by competent, substantial evidence. Id. In this case, they are. We are therefore compelled to affirm.
Affirmed.
