States without a state Medicaid exclusion list
Most state Medicaid programs publish a list of providers they have sanctioned. In 8 jurisdictions we found none to screen against. Here is what each one’s official sources say, and what to check instead.
What this means
No public list does not mean a state never sanctions a provider. Several of these states have rules that allow suspensions, terminations or other sanctions; they simply do not publish them as a list.
In these states, the federal lists are the check: the HHS-OIG List of Excluded Individuals and Entities (LEIE) and SAM.gov exclusions. Medicaid in every state cannot pay for items or services from a provider on the OIG list, and most of these states point providers to the OIG list directly.
A state can also act against a provider in ways that never reach a list, such as through a managed care contract or a provider agreement. If your contracts or program rules name a state source, follow them, and ask the state Medicaid agency when a result matters.
State by state
District of Columbia
Medicaid agency: DC Department of Health Care Finance (DHCF)
The District’s “Excluded Parties List” is published by the Office of Contracting and Procurement and covers contractors debarred or suspended from District contracts under DC Code § 2-359.07, not Medicaid providers. A former DHCF excluded-providers page no longer loads, and no current Medicaid list was found.
Official sources
New Mexico
Medicaid agency: New Mexico Health Care Authority
New Mexico’s rules allow the Medical Assistance Division to sanction providers, but no public list of those sanctions was found.
Official sources
Oklahoma
Medicaid agency: Oklahoma Health Care Authority (OHCA)
OHCA’s provider enrollment resources point to the federal OIG list. OHCA can terminate SoonerCare provider agreements, but it publishes no list of those terminations.
Official sources
Rhode Island
Medicaid agency: Rhode Island Executive Office of Health and Human Services (EOHHS)
EOHHS can impose sanctions on Medicaid providers and directs providers to screen against the federal OIG list. Its public provider search lists enrolled providers, not sanctions.
Official sources
South Dakota
Medicaid agency: South Dakota Department of Social Services
South Dakota’s Medicaid State Plan addresses exclusions, and its provider policy directs checks against the federal OIG list and SAM.gov. No state list was found.
Official sources
Utah
Medicaid agency: Utah Office of Inspector General of Medicaid Services
Utah’s Medicaid Inspector General directs providers to the federal OIG list, and no state Medicaid list was found.
Official sources
Virginia
Medicaid agency: Virginia Department of Medical Assistance Services (DMAS)
Virginia’s rules allow DMAS to terminate provider agreements, but no public list of terminations or sanctions was found, and a former DMAS program integrity page no longer loads.
Official sources
Wisconsin
Medicaid agency: Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS)
Wisconsin’s public provider finder lists enrolled and regulated providers, not sanctions, and managed care plans report terminations to the DHS Inspector General rather than to a public list.
Official sources
