Medicare and Medicaid requirements are clear,
especially concerning sanctions and exclusions.
So are the penalties for not complying. Don’t run
the risk. Protect yourself with SanctionCheck.
The risk is great
For organizations providing services to Medicare and Medicaid patients, ensuring an institution’s compliance with regulatory requirements prohibiting employment of sanctioned individuals has potentially very costly implications. Hiring or continuing to employ physicians, allied healthcare professionals, nurses, contractors or vendors who have been sanctioned or excluded can jeopardize your ability to be reimbursed by Medicare and Medicaid. It can also subject your institution to the risk of Civil Monetary Penalties (CMP).
A complex challenge
In the continuing effort to combat fraud and abuse in Medicare and Medicaid programs, the Office of Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has issued guidelines requiring sanctions and monetary penalties for healthcare organizations receiving federal money that employ or extend privileges to individuals who have been excluded or sanctioned. This presents a complex challenge, since simply checking the OIG and GSA lists is not sufficient to protect your organization. No less than 58 federal agencies and all 50 state Medicaid agencies have the authority to issue sanctions and exclusions. Furthermore, due diligence dictates that such screening be conducted on an ongoing basis. With the number and diversity of agencies involved, this screening can be complex and timeconsuming for you and your staff.
