Not registry lookups; ezOIG doesn't run these
  • Physical exam or health screening and 2-step TB test before resident contact (He-P 804.18(p); He-P 805.18(o))

Why some registries are not screened yet

The registry blocks automated access
The registry's website turns away automated lookups. We don't work around that, so for now your staff search it themselves.
Requires an employer account
Searches go through the employer's own account with the agency, so ezOIG doesn't run them for you.
Checked by request to the agency
The agency answers a written request or form rather than an online search.

Guidance, not legal advice

This page summarizes ezOIG's research into New Hampshire's rules for this program, checked against the regulations as of October 16, 2026. Rules change, and an agency's own contract or license can add to them. Confirm what applies to you with New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services (NH Medicaid) or your own counsel before relying on it.
