View Excluded Entities

The Office of the Inspector General publishes a List of Excluded Individuals/Entities (LEIE) of individuals and entities currently excluded from participation in Medicare, Medicaid and all other Federal health care programs. Any individuals/entities who have been reinstated are removed from the LEIE list.  
 
 The “Excluded Entity Matches” provide a list of existing Active volunteers (Active = volunteers who have their Primary Facility = to the facility the user is working in OR who have an active assignment at the facility the user is working in AND are not TERMINATED) that have an entry on the LEIE file that matches the Volunteer’s first name, last name, and date of birth.
“All Excluded Entities” provide a list of all excluded entities received in the input file (regardless of whether or not there was a match to an existing volunteer).
