OIG Sanctions Report

Protect your healthcare organization, patients, and staff with this critical search. Find out which candidates are on the Office of the Inspector General’s (OIG) sanctions list of individuals and entities excluded from Medicare, Medicaid, and all federal healthcare programs. The search details if a candidate is on the exclusion list for one of the following reasons:

Program-related fraud (eg: Medicare/Medicaid)
Patient abuse
Licensing board action
Default on health education assistance loans

Many healthcare organizations choose to retrieve updated OIG reports annually or twice a year to ensure compliance and protect funds.

We offer an easy way to update background checks. Send us a spreadsheet with the required information for the staff you need to check, and we will quickly process a “bulk” order.

The OIG Sanctions Report is the most commonly requested search on existing healthcare staff. Facilities often choose to get updated reports annually or biannually. This is a small investment to ensure compliance.

Yes. The OIG report is included in the FACIS® Report. You can order the OIG Sanctions Report independently based on your organization’s needs. This option is ideal for required update searches on current staff.

Organizations that employ sanctioned individuals may be forced to return all federal funds received from these programs going back to the date the person became employed. The OIG Sanctions Report is an inexpensive preventative measure against losing federal funding.
