Who needs to be screened?
Healthcare organizations must screen new hires and regularly monitor current employees, as well as the individuals and entities with whom they do business, to avoid potential Civil Monetary Penalties.
This includes doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and other healthcare professionals interacting with patients and federal healthcare programs, such as Medicare or Medicaid.
Even if someone isn’t directly providing care, they might still be involved in billing, patient records, or managing payments from federal programs. These roles are critical, and OIG exclusion checks should apply here.
Think of anyone supplying medical equipment, pharmaceuticals, or services to a healthcare organization. Just because someone isn’t a full-time employee doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be checked. They must pass an OIG background check if they provide goods or services involving federal funds.
Volunteers can be involved in patient care or sensitive healthcare operations in specific settings. While not always required, screening volunteers can help ensure the organization maintains compliance with federal regulations.
State Medicaid Exclusion Lists
Every State has a department or agency responsible for maintaining the integrity of its Medicaid programs and public health initiatives. While the names of these enforcement authorities may vary—such as the Department of Medicaid or the Department of Health Care Services—they all create regulations regarding the ineligibility of providers who have been disciplined or have lost specific licensing privileges.
State Lists vs. OIG LEIE
States are required to notify the Health and Human Services (HHS) Office of Inspector General (OIG) only when they exclude or terminate an individual or entity based on federal law.
They are not required to notify the OIG (nor should they) for terminations and exclusions based on State laws, because if the sanction fails to meet the criteria for a federal exclusion, it will not be included on the OIG List of Excluded Individuals/Entities (LEIE).
For instance, a State might exclude a party for failing to pay State taxes or for a variety of other reasons that would not be valid bases for federal exclusion. For this reason, states maintain a list of individuals and entities who are terminated, suspended, sanctioned, or otherwise excluded from the State Medicaid program under State law.
States may also maintain their lists as central registries for State sanctions, including non-healthcare actions and exclusions or terminations. For example, federal exclusions can be imposed for failing to repay federal loans, and it would be reasonable for a State to have a similar exclusion basis.
Unfortunately, each State that publishes an exclusion list has different formats and varying levels of detail. Some states provide only the name of the excluded individual or entity, along with a possible address and sometimes just a city.
Some States don’t Maintain a List
States are not required to maintain a State exclusion list, and seven states have elected not to: New Mexico, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Utah, Virginia, and Wisconsin.
This is a problem because, without a separate state-sanctioned or exclusion list, it is difficult to determine whether an individual or entity has been excluded or terminated under State law.
