Subject: RE: Ohio Department of Medicaid Exclusion and Suspension List
Anita,
Here is an email I have from ARCS from February. If a provider is running their employees through ARCS then the check is completed and you can show they were cleared on the date it was run. Just thought I’d pass
this along if you wish to share.
Ohio Medicaid Provider Exclusion and Suspension List Added to ARCS - 02/19/2019
The Ohio Medicaid Provider Exclusion and Suspension List identifies individuals who are excluded from employment by a Medicaid or Medicare provider because they have been
terminated for cause. This list is compiled and maintained by the Ohio Department of Medicaid and updated about every two weeks. Individuals on this list may also appear on the OIG and SAMS lists. At the beginning of each month, ARCS conducts a Registry Recheck
of all applications, and the Ohio Medicaid Provider Exclusion and Suspension List will be included in this recheck.

of hiring an individual who appears on the Ohio Medicaid Provider Exclusion and Suspension List.
Thanks,
