How do I check the Georgia Medicaid exclusion list?

The Georgia Medicaid exclusion list is published by the Georgia DCH Office of Inspector General. Screen each provider on your roster against it by NPI and name, confirm any match at the primary source, and document the check with its date. Fonteum mirrors the Georgia list alongside the OIG LEIE, SAM.gov, and 16 other state lists so you can clear it in one pass with a signed attestation.

Who publishes the Georgia Medicaid exclusion list?

Source: Georgia Department of Community Health, Office of Inspector General. Fonteum mirrors that list as a source-traced screening aid and links back to the authority of record; the absence of a match means "nothing found in the list Fonteum currently holds," never a guarantee that none exists.

Is screening Georgia enough on its own?

No. A provider excluded by Georgia Medicaid may not appear on the federal OIG LEIE, and a provider your Georgia roster shows as clean may be excluded by another state. A defensible screen covers the OIG LEIE, SAM.gov, and every applicable state Medicaid list — the "excluded-anywhere" approach — not a single jurisdiction.

How often should I re-screen Georgia providers?

Monthly. The OIG recommends monthly screening against the LEIE, the penalty for employing an excluded provider accrues per item or service, and state lists update on their own schedules. Re-running the Georgia screen monthly and keeping a dated record is the defensible cadence.

Can Fonteum screen a Georgia roster for free?

Yes. Upload your roster and Fonteum runs a free same-day screen against the Georgia Medicaid list, the OIG LEIE, SAM.gov, and every other state list it mirrors, returning a signed, hash-chained attestation PDF in which each match traces to its source file and snapshot date. Public data only; no PHI, no demo.

What does a Georgia exclusion mean for payment?

An in-force exclusion means the program may not pay for items or services the excluded party furnishes, orders, or prescribes. Employing or contracting with an excluded individual can expose the organization to civil monetary penalties — up to $24,947 per item or service under Section 1128A of the Social Security Act — plus repayment. Confirm every match at the source before acting.

The process

How to screen a Georgia provider roster

Open the Georgia Medicaid exclusion listThe list is published by the Georgia DCH Office of Inspector General. The primary source is at Georgia Department of Community Health, Office of Inspector General. Always treat that page as the authority of record.
Match every provider by NPI, then by nameCheck each provider on your Georgia roster against the list by NPI where the source publishes one, and by name where it does not. Confirm any hit against the primary list before any adverse action.
Screen the federal lists tooA Georgia match is necessary but not sufficient. Screen the same roster against the OIG LEIE and SAM.gov, because a federal exclusion may not appear on a state list and vice versa.
Screen every other state your providers touchA provider excluded in Georgia can relocate and bill elsewhere — and one excluded in another state can show up on your Georgia roster clean. For a multi-state roster, screen all 17 state Medicaid lists Fonteum mirrors, not just Georgia.
Document the screen and repeat monthlyKeep a dated record of which list you checked, the snapshot date, and any match. Re-run the Georgia screen on a monthly cadence, aligned to how often the source republishes.
