Fonteum · Data · Exclusions

A provider clean on the federal list can still be excluded by a state.

The federal OIG LEIE covers exclusions from federal health programs. State Medicaid programs keep their own exclusion lists — and many state-excluded providers never appear on the federal list. Of 5,224 NPI-bearing providers on the state Medicaid exclusion lists Fonteum mirrors today, 3,109 (60%) do not appear on the federal LEIE by NPI — the exact gap a federal-only screen returns as a false clean. Aggregate-level, framed as a screening aid; cross-check any single record against the publishing agency.

Overlap is matched by NPI. The federal LEIE records an NPI on only a minority of its entries (entity records typically lack one by source convention), so the federal-only figure is a floor on the true overlap, not a ceiling — the state-only share is therefore a conservative estimate of what a federal-only NPI screen misses.

State Medicaid exclusion coverage

22,917 state Medicaid exclusion records across 13 distinct state Medicaid jurisdictions · captured July 22, 2026. Each state page mirrors the published list as a screening aid, with NPI-matched records linked to their provider profile.

StateExclusion recordsWith NPI

Coverage expands as additional state Medicaid exclusion lists are onboarded. A state with too few records to substantiate a dataset is held back from the index until its list is fully captured.

Scope and limitations

  • Screening aid, not a determination. Fonteum mirrors the published exclusion lists; it does not adjudicate exclusions.
  • Reinstatements and corrections can lag the published file. Cross-check any single record against the publishing agency before acting on it.
  • Federal/state overlap is matched by NPI. Records without an NPI are counted in the totals but cannot be cross-matched.
  • State coverage is limited to GA, IA, MD, MS, MT, NC, ND, NH, NY, OH, PA, TN, and WA. Absence of a state here does not imply a provider is clear in that state.

Integrated, with-data, and fresh-observation counts are separate. No platform-wide source-completeness count is published. Completeness is source-specific and must be evaluated against the named source's expected scope. State coverage is a separate jurisdiction measure.

Source authority is record-specific

Use the issuer named on the record.

Fonteum spans federal, state, and global public publishers. A source page or returned record identifies its issuer and dataset where that metadata is available. A platform registry count does not assign every page to one authority or establish loaded, fresh, or complete coverage.

Reproducible by design

Inspect the evidence each published figure actually supplies.

Source and date

Research pages expose the named public file and observation date where those fields are available. Source-file SHA-256 coverage is separate; facts do not currently link deterministically to signatures.

Available derivation

Studies with a retained release and committed derivation link the SQL or method used. Other studies state the evidence and reproduction limits they actually have.

Daily observations

Dated table row-count observations can detect local drift. They do not imply that an upstream publisher released or Fonteum ingested new data that day.
