DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

Office of Inspector General


Program Exclusions: June 1997

AGENCY: Office of Inspector General, HHS.

ACTION: Notice of program exclusions.

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

    During the month of June 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.
