Search of the OIG exclusion list for individuals/entities that currently cannot participate in Federally-funded health care programs. The exclusion list is searched directly through the HHS Office of the Inspector General. Reasons for individuals to be included on the exclusion list can include convictions for program-related fraud and patient abuse, licensing board actions and default on Health Education Assistance Loans. The exclusion list is updated on approximately the 10th of every month, so there may be discrepancy in individuals named that are awaiting re-instatement.
