Also required

Not registry lookups; ezOIG doesn't run these
  • Fingerprint-based OSBI and FBI check through OK-SCREEN; compliance with 63 O.S. §§ 1-1950.1, 1-1950.3, 1-1950.4 and 1-1951 (OAC 310:605-11-1(6); 63 O.S. § 1-1947(I))

  • DDS-funded adult day services: criminal background check under OAC 340:100-3-39 before employment or use as a volunteer (OHCA Adult Day Services special provisions)

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.
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.
