DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

Office of Inspector General


Program Exclusions: December 1997

AGENCY: Office of Inspector General, HHS.

ACTION: Notice of program exclusions.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

    During the month of December 1997, the HHS Office of Inspector 
General imposed exclusions in the cases set forth below. When an 
exclusion is imposed, no program payment is made to anyone for any 
items or services (other than an emergency item or service not provided 
in a hospital emergency room) furnished, ordered or prescribed by an 
excluded party under the Medicare, Medicaid, Maternal and Child Health 
Services Block Grant and Block Grants to States for Social Services 
programs. In addition, no program payment is made to any business or 
facility, e.g., a hospital, that submits bills for payment for items or 
services provided by an excluded party. Program beneficiaries remain 
free to decide for themselves whether they will continue to use the 
services of an excluded party even though no program payments will be 
made for items and services provided by that excluded party. The 
exclusions have national effect and also apply to all Executive Branch 
procurement and non-procurement programs and activities.
