The common problem

State Medicaid programs expect documented exclusion screening that ad-hoc LEIE searches cannot provide.

  • Screening scope excludes non-clinical vendors
  • Re-screening after ownership changes is manual
  • Documentation does not tie to payment dates
  • Integrity reviews find gaps in contractor screening

How exclusion screening works

Enroll

Add vendors, contractors, and individuals you pay to a screening roster with the identifiers you already collect.

Screen

Run checks against the OIG LEIE and related exclusion sources on a schedule that matches your risk policy.
