📢 Stay Informed: OIG Exclusion List Compliance Matters More Than Ever

In today’s healthcare environment, staying informed isn’t just smart — it’s a critical part of protecting your organization, maintaining compliance, and avoiding costly penalties. One area that is often overlooked is routine screening against the OIG Exclusion List.

Here’s what every billing company, practice owner, administrator, and healthcare provider needs to know:

⚠️ What You Must Know About the OIG Exclusion List

These rules apply to anyone participating in Medicare, TRICARE, or CHIPS, and are enforced by the HHS Office of Inspector General (OIG).

🛡️ Federal Requirements at a Glance

- Applies to federal health care programs

- Enforced by HHS/OIG

- Providers must screen employees, vendors, and contractors at hire and monthly

- Failure to screen can result in Civil Money Penalties (CMPs) and overpayment liability

🔍 Best Practice for Compliance

✔️ Screen every employee, vendor, and contractor
✔️ Screen upon hire or contract ex*****on
✔️ Screen every month thereafter
✔️ Use all federal and state exclusion databases

This ensures no excluded individual is involved in items or services tied to federal health care reimbursement.

By staying proactive, following best practices, and keeping your team educated, you can dramatically reduce compliance risk and maintain the integrity of your billing operations. Consistent OIG exclusion screening isn’t just a requirement — it’s a safeguard for the future of your organization.

Her dedication to advancing the profession and helping practices navigate an ever-changing healthcare landscape makes her an invaluable part of AMBA’s leadership.

🌟 Monday Member Spotlight 🌟
Welcome back to our weekly series where we highlight the incredible professionals who make up the AMBA community!

This week, we are proud to spotlight Trang Nguyen, MCS-P, CMRS — a dedicated healthcare professional whose career reflects resilience, growth, and unwavering commitment to excellence.

Trang has served as a Senior Account Manager with Gold Star Medical Business Services since 2015. Before joining Gold Star, she spent over a decade in Human Resources after earning her Associate of Science degree, developing deep expertise in health insurance benefits, workers’ compensation law, payroll law, and labor law.

In 2012, Trang made the decision to transition her career to spend more time with her children. She began working at a chiropractic office as a Front Desk Receptionist, and through hard work and a commitment to learning, she was promoted to Office Manager before the end of the year. During that time, she attended numerous seminars to expand her knowledge of medical billing and compliance, laying the foundation for her future in the industry.

Trang later completed Dr. Mario Fucinari’s Medical Compliance Specialist Certification Bootcamp, where she met Lisa Maciejewski-West, owner of Gold Star Medical Business Services — a connection that ultimately shaped the next chapter of her career. Today, Trang holds both the Medical Compliance Specialist–Physician (MCS-P) and Certified Medical Reimbursement Specialist (CMRS) credentials.

Within AMBA, Trang serves on our National Advisory Board, bringing valuable insight and perspective gained through years of hands-on experience in billing, compliance, and practice management. Most recently, she earned her Bachelor of Science in Healthcare Management, further demonstrating her dedication to professional advancement and lifelong learning.

👏 Please join us in celebrating Trang for her leadership, dedication, and the remarkable impact she continues to make in the healthcare community!
