Indiana FSSA Office of Medicaid Policy and Planning maintains the Indiana FSSA OMPP Provider Sanctions — a separate Medicaid exclusion list providers must screen alongside the federal OIG LEIE and GSA/SAM. Hiring or contracting with anyone on these lists creates federal penalty exposure, even when the hire was unintentional.

Indiana-specific FAQs
Is the Indiana FSSA OMPP Provider Sanctions the same as the OIG LEIE?
No. The OIG LEIE is the federal exclusion list covering Medicare, Medicaid, and all federal health programs. The Indiana FSSA OMPP Provider Sanctions is separate and covers providers excluded or terminated from Indiana Medicaid specifically. Providers must screen both, along with GSA/SAM.
How often do I need to screen against the Indiana FSSA OMPP Provider Sanctions?
Monthly, on hire and every month thereafter. CMS State Medicaid Director Letters #08-003 and #09-001 require monthly screening of every employee, contractor, and vendor that contributes to a claim — including billers, coders, and managing employees.
Do I need to screen the Indiana list if I’m not located in Indiana?
Yes — if you bill Indiana Medicaid or employ Indiana-licensed staff, the screening obligation applies. An exclusion in one state can also trigger sanctions in others under Section 6501 of the Affordable Care Act.
Federal penalties & cross-state implications
The OIG can impose civil monetary penalties of up to $24,947 per item or service that an excluded individual contributed to. Penalties stack quickly: a single excluded employee submitting claims over several months can produce six- or seven-figure exposure. Self-disclosure reduces but does not eliminate the penalty — recent settlements show organizations paying $100K-$3M+ even after voluntary reporting.
CMS requires monthly screening of employees, contractors, vendors, and any party who contributes to a claim — including billers, coders, and managing employees. Screening is required on hire and monthly thereafter (CMS State Medicaid Director Letters #08-003 and #09-001).
An exclusion in one state can trigger sanctions in others under Section 6501 of the Affordable Care Act. Providers should screen against the OIG LEIE, GSA/SAM, and every state Medicaid exclusion list — not just their home state.
