DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES
Office of Inspector General
Program Exclusions: August 1998
AGENCY: Office of Inspector General, HHS.
ACTION: Notice of program exclusions.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
During the month of August 1998, 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 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.
