How ezOIG screens in Minnesota

In every state, ezOIG screens the federal lists: the HHS-OIG exclusion list (LEIE), SAM.gov exclusions and the OFAC sanctions list.

Of Minnesota's own registries, ezOIG screens 1: Minnesota Nurse Aide Registry.

2 registries the rules name are not screened by ezOIG yet. Each is listed below with the reason, so you know which to check another way.

Care programs

Each program's checks, with the rule behind each one

Minnesota's programs

  • PCA / CFSS

    Personal Care Assistance (PCA) and Community First Services and Supports (CFSS)

    PCAs, qualified professionals and CFSS support workers, whether employed by an agency or by the participant through a financial management services provider. CFSS replaced PCA and the Consumer Support Grant effective October 1, 2024, and PCA is being phased out as members transition (MHCP Provider Manual); the screening rules are the same, so they are merged.

    Non-medical home care: basic home care licensees (MDH) and enrolled providers of unlicensed waiver services such as homemaker, companion and respite under the Elderly Waiver, Alternative Care, CADI, BI and DD programs. Screening is the same for both, so they are merged.
