Also required

Not registry lookups; ezOIG doesn't run these

  • Hospice aide training and competency evaluation (42 CFR 418.76)

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.
Checked by request to the agency
The agency answers a written request or form rather than an online search.
