How do I check the North Dakota Medicaid exclusion list?

The North Dakota Medicaid exclusion list is published by the North Dakota Health and Human Services (HHS), Medicaid Program Integrity. 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. North Dakota is one of the state lists currently loaded by Fonteum, alongside the OIG LEIE and SAM.gov; 13 state Medicaid jurisdictions represented as of August 4, 2026. Stale or incomplete coverage is reported as indeterminate, not a clearance.

Who publishes the North Dakota Medicaid exclusion list?

Source: North Dakota Health and Human Services (HHS). This guide links back to the authority of record. Fonteum currently loads this list as a source-traced screening aid; an absence is a no-match only under reconciled current coverage. Stale or incomplete loaded coverage is indeterminate and not a clearance.

Is screening North Dakota enough on its own?

No. A provider excluded by North Dakota Medicaid may not appear on the federal OIG LEIE, and a provider with no North Dakota-list match 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 North Dakota providers?

Follow the North Dakota Medicaid program's current rules and the source's own update cadence. OIG separately advises checking the LEIE before employing or contracting and periodically afterward, and says monthly LEIE screening best minimizes potential liability. Keep a dated record of every applicable check.

Can Fonteum screen a North Dakota roster for free?

Yes, for the first 25 unique ten-digit NPI inputs. Fonteum's on-demand screen checks the North Dakota Medicaid list, OIG LEIE, SAM.gov, and the other currently loaded state lists; 13 state Medicaid jurisdictions represented as of August 4, 2026. It shows counts and a matched-source breakdown on screen only, with no free artifact, email, or monitoring. Stale or incomplete coverage is indeterminate.

What does a North Dakota 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. Civil monetary penalties, assessments, and repayment can apply when federal programs are billed for items or services furnished by an excluded party. Applicable amounts change over time; confirm current rules and every match at the primary source before acting.

How to screen a North Dakota provider roster

Open the North Dakota Medicaid exclusion listThe list is published by the North Dakota Health and Human Services (HHS), Medicaid Program Integrity. The primary source is at North Dakota Health and Human Services. Always treat that page as the authority of record.
Match by NPI when present, then use source-supported name fieldsCheck each provider on your North Dakota 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 North Dakota 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 applicable stateA provider excluded in North Dakota can relocate and bill elsewhere — and one excluded in another state may not appear on a North Dakota-only screen. For a multi-state roster, screen every applicable state at its primary source. Fonteum's product currently checks 13 state Medicaid jurisdictions represented as of August 4, 2026, not all states.
Document the screen and set a recurring cadenceKeep a dated record of which list you checked, the date of the copy you checked, and any match. Follow the North Dakota program's current rules and source cadence; OIG separately says monthly LEIE screening best minimizes potential liability.
