How ezOIG screens in New Mexico

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

ezOIG does not screen any of New Mexico's own registries yet.

4 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.

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.
Requires an employer account
Searches go through the employer's own account with the agency, so ezOIG doesn't run them for you.
