Good morning from Washington, DC. Today OIG updates the LEIE database and posts news about enforcement actions. As always, you can use the links provided to go directly to the new material.   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------   LEIE Database Updated with July 2014 Exclusions and Reinstatements   The "Updated LEIE" database file reflects all OIG exclusion and reinstatement actions up to, and including, those taken in July 2014. This new, "Updated LEIE" (List of Excluded Individuals and Entities) is a complete database file containing all exclusions currently in effect. Individuals and entities that have been reinstated to the federal health care programs are not included in this file.   All the updated files are posted at http://www.oig.hhs.gov/exclusions/exclusions_list.asp       Please note that LEIE files that do not contain the NPI, Waiver and Waiver States fields are no longer available.   OIG now only archives monthly supplement files for the previous 12 months. Older material is no longer available on the website or via phone call to Exclusions staff, although the Downloadable LEIE gives users the latest information on excluded individuals or entities. The Monthly Supplement files dated May 2013 or before will not include the National Provider Identifier and Waiver fields.   Instructional videos explaining how to use the online database and the downloadable files are available.   Online Database Video: http://oig.hhs.gov/exclusions/online.asp   Downloadable Database Video: http://oig.hhs.gov/exclusions/download.asp   OIG has added NPIs to LEIE records starting in 2008 and will include NPIs in LEIE records on a forward-going basis. Please note that not every individual or entity that is excluded has an NPI to add. Therefore, many records will not include information in the NPI field.    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------   State Enforcement Actions Updated http://go.usa.gov/NXWh ------------------------------------------------------------------------------   That's all we have for today.
