Document false positive OIG match review

The common problem

Common names generate LEIE hits that block onboarding indefinitely. Without documented review, teams either ignore hits or stall vendors with no audit trail.

  • Every name match is treated as a confirmed exclusion
  • Review notes live in email with no standard process
  • Cleared vendors have no proof of investigation
  • Auditors question ad hoc clearance decisions

FAQ

A LEIE name match that investigation shows is a different individual or entity—documented before clearance.
