DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

Office of Inspector General


Program Exclusions: January 2000

AGENCY: Office of Inspector General, HHS.

ACTION: Notice of program exclusions.

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

    During the month of January 2000, 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, and all Federal Health 
Care 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.
