Puerto Rico: Excluded Healthcare Providers and Entities

About HHS-OIG exclusions in Puerto Rico

The records on this page are individuals and entities with a Puerto Rico address that the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Inspector General (HHS-OIG) has excluded from participation in Medicare, Medicaid, and other federally funded health care programs. The latest imported HHS-OIG LEIE dataset lists 227 currently excluded Puerto Rico records — 209 individuals and 18 entities. While a party is excluded, federal health care programs will not pay for items or services they furnish, order, or prescribe.

This page summarizes the public LEIE dataset only and is not an official government record. Always verify a person or entity's identity and current exclusion status directly with HHS-OIG before making employment, contracting, credentialing, billing, or compliance decisions.
