Expert Responses to Common Inquiries About OIG Exclusion
The Office of Inspector General's List of Excluded Individuals/Entities (LEIE) identifies individuals and entities that have been convicted of crimes related to Medicare and Medicaid, patient abuse or neglect, or have had their licenses revoked for misconduct.
This list is crucial for healthcare providers as hiring someone who is on the LEIE can lead to significant monetary penalties and compliance issues. The OIG updates this exclusion list daily to reflect any changes such as additions or removals, ensuring that healthcare providers have the most current information for their screening processes.

The SAM Exclusion List is a list of individuals and entities that are prohibited from receiving federal contracts, certain subcontracts, and certain types of federal financial and non-financial assistance and benefits. Individuals and entities on the Exclusion List are not eligible to do business with the US federal government.
An exclusion check should be conducted during the hiring process to ensure that no prospective healthcare worker is listed on the LEIE. Beyond initial hiring, the Office of Inspector General recommends that healthcare facilities perform these checks at least once a month.
Regular screening helps maintain compliance with healthcare regulations and ensures that new hires or current employees have not been subsequently listed on the LEIE.

It is advisable to check the OIG’s List of Excluded Individuals and Entities (LEIE) at least once a month. This frequency ensures that healthcare providers are continually compliant with federal health program standards and helps prevent the risks associated with employing excluded individuals.
Since the LEIE is updated daily with new exclusions and reinstatements, monthly checks help capture any relevant changes that could affect your facility’s compliance status.
