The risk is real

Most businesses have no system to catch this.

Until it's too late.

OIG Civil Monetary Penalty

$0

per claim billed by an excluded individual (2025 rate)

Employ someone on the federal exclusion list in a Medicare or Medicaid role. Every claim they touched gets flagged. Every dollar repaid. Then the CMP stacks on top, up to $25,595 per item, per service.

The OIG exclusion list has 78,927 entries. It updates monthly. Most employers check it never.

Real Case: One Excluded Nurse

$0

paid by The Estates of St. Louis for a single excluded charge nurse

One care facility. One excluded nurse on staff. Every Medicare claim she touched had to be repaid, plus civil monetary penalties on top. $300,000 in total liability. One oversight. One employee.

Sharp Healthcare paid $153,072 for one excluded nurse. Baptist Health paid $184,000. This happens every month.

How PracticeSentry prevents this

PracticeSentry screens your entire workforce, not just new hires. Existing employees who become excluded are flagged immediately.

Cascade Permit Failure

0 procedures

performed on a voided anesthesia permit, every one a liability

A dental hygienist's BLS expired. No alert. The BLS was a prerequisite for the practice's anesthesia permit, which became void the day the BLS lapsed. 43 sedation procedures were performed after that. Every one is now a liability.

Permit-on-permit dependencies are invisible in spreadsheets. One expired BLS can void your entire sedation program.

Tap to see the fix →

How PracticeSentry prevents this

PracticeSentry maps credential dependencies. When a prerequisite expires, dependent permits are flagged before a single procedure is performed.

SAM.gov Debarment Match

$0

Rotech Healthcare, excluded employees across multiple locations

A provider on the SAM.gov debarment list continued billing federal programs. Every claim submitted after the exclusion date was flagged. The practice repaid every dollar, plus treble damages under the False Claims Act.

SAM.gov and the CMS Preclusion List update independently from OIG. Checking one is not enough.

How PracticeSentry prevents this

PracticeSentry screens every employee against OIG, SAM.gov, and CMS Preclusion simultaneously. A match on any list is flagged the same day.

The business case

Compliance tracking pays for itself.

Every one of these happens to real businesses every week.

What happens when a license quietly expires?

Before HR notices, that employee has already practiced illegally, seen patients, or closed deals. A complaint is filed. Now you are on the hook for reinstatement fees, legal costs, and regulatory scrutiny. All because of a date no one tracked.

Tap for the solution →

PracticeSentry fires alerts at 90, 30, and 7 days before any license expires. Lapses stop before they start.

When was the last time you verified your staff credentials? Not at hire. Right now.

Most practices check credentials once during onboarding and never again. Licenses expire. Certifications lapse. Employees get excluded from federal programs mid-employment. If you are only checking at hire, you are flying blind every day after.

Tap for the solution →

PracticeSentry verifies continuously against official government registries. Not once at hire. Every few days, automatically.

What if someone on your payroll is on a federal or state exclusion list?

Federal and state exclusion lists like the OIG LEIE and CMS Preclusion List bar individuals from billing Medicare and Medicaid. Employ one of them, even unknowingly, and every claim they touched becomes fraudulent. Penalties run up to $25,595 per claim, plus treble damages under the False Claims Act. Most practices have never checked.

Tap for the solution →

PracticeSentry screens every employee against federal and state exclusion lists automatically. Not just at hire, but continuously.

When an auditor shows up, what do you actually hand them?

Most businesses scramble. They call former employees, dig through old emails, build spreadsheets the night before. Auditors see this. It costs contracts, certifications, and sometimes the ability to operate at all.

Tap for the solution →

PracticeSentry maintains a living audit trail. Pull a full compliance report in one click, any time.

What if an employee is on the OIG exclusion list right now?

The OIG publishes a list of individuals excluded from Medicare and Medicaid. It has over 78,000 entries and updates monthly. Hiring one of them, even unknowingly, means every claim they touched gets flagged and repaid. The penalty? $25,595 per item billed. Most employers have never once checked.

Tap for the solution →

PracticeSentry screens your entire team against the OIG exclusion list automatically. Any match is flagged immediately. Not just at hire, but continuously.

What happens when one expired credential voids everything built on top of it?

Your anesthesia permit requires an active BLS and ACLS. Your DEA registration requires an active state license. These dependencies are invisible until one foundational credential lapses and the permits stacked on top silently become void. You keep operating. You keep billing. You find out during an audit.

Tap for the solution →

PracticeSentry maps permit-on-permit dependencies and alerts you when a prerequisite is at risk, before dependent credentials become void.

Are you losing bids because you cannot prove compliance?

Government contracts, healthcare accreditations, and insurance renewals increasingly demand documented credential programs. If you cannot prove compliance on paper, you lose the deal. Competitors with systems in place win by default.

Tap for the solution →

PracticeSentry generates professional compliance reports on demand. Walk into any bid or audit ready.

How much does turnover cost your compliance program?

Every new hire resets the clock. Did they submit their credentials? Are they verified? Did you remember to off-board the person who left? Manual compliance breaks every time someone joins, moves roles, or walks out the door.

Tap for the solution →

PracticeSentry tracks every employee lifecycle event. Onboarding triggers credential collection automatically.

What happens when someone calls out sick and their backup is not certified?

You need coverage fast. The usual person is out. You call someone in. Nobody checks whether that person is current on their certifications. Now you have an uncertified employee in a role that requires one. And you did not know.

Tap for the solution →

PracticeSentry shows you, in real time, which employees are compliant and available for which roles.

What does a malpractice claim look like when the provider was unlicensed?

Most malpractice policies require the provider to be licensed and in good standing at the time of the incident. A gap in licensure at the time of a claim can mean denied defense, no indemnification, and personal liability for the provider and the practice. You find out when it is too late to fix.

Tap for the solution →

PracticeSentry catches license gaps before they become malpractice exposure. Continuous monitoring means no surprises.

Built for regulated practices

Your industry. Your credentials. Covered.

Click any specialty to see its biggest compliance risk.

Everything you need

One dashboard. Zero surprises.

Verified against official sources

We check state licensing boards, the federal OIG exclusion list, and SAM.gov directly. Not a third-party database. The real thing.

Employee self-enrollment

Send one link to your whole team. Each employee fills in their own credentials from their phone. HR reviews and approves.

Automated expiration alerts

Alerts go out at 90 days, 30 days, 3 days, and day-of. HR gets them. The employee gets them. Nothing slips through.

OIG exclusion monitoring

The OIG updates their exclusion list monthly. We check every employee automatically and flag matches immediately.

Track any credential type

Nursing licenses, DEA registrations, BLS/ACLS certs, anesthesia permits, NPI numbers, state board licenses. If it expires, we track it.

Compliance calendar

See every expiration across your entire workforce on a single calendar. Plan ahead instead of scrambling when renewals stack up.

Cascade dependency tracking

Some permits only stay valid when the credentials beneath them do. We map those dependencies, like anesthesia permits that require active BLS and ACLS, and alert you when a prerequisite is at risk before dependent permits become void.

Automated scans catch problems early

Scans run every few days against federal and state databases. By the time something changes, you already know. No manual checks, no forgotten follow-ups.

On-demand scans when you need answers now

New hire starting Monday? Run a scan right now against exclusion lists and licensing boards. Results the same day. No waiting for the next scheduled cycle.
