Expected checks

Standard practice, or implied by a provider's enrollment duties; no rule names them outright

None for this program.

Also required

Not registry lookups; ezOIG doesn't run these
  • National background check at hire using name, SSN, DOB and driver's licence or state ID number; no convictions or pending charges for violent crimes or felonies (Provider Manual ch. 31)
  • Initial TB skin test (Provider Manual ch. 31)

Why some registries are not screened yet

The registry's terms forbid automated searches
The registry's terms, or the law behind it, rule out automated or third-party searches, so ezOIG doesn't run them.
Paid access
The agency charges for access, and ezOIG doesn't include it yet.
