Why this was flagged

Excluded owner

An owner matches the federal exclusion list

A person or company listed as an owner or managing party of this provider matches a name on the HHS OIG list of individuals and entities excluded from federal healthcare programs. Names can coincide, so the identity must be confirmed before this means anything.
