Abstract
This document contains a correction to the final regulations which were published in the Federal Register on March 18, 2002 (67 FR 11928). These regulations set forth several revisions and technical corrections to the OIG regulations pertaining to fraud and abuse in Federal health care programs. A typographical error appeared in the text of the regulations in Sec. 1001.201(b) concerning the amount of financial loss considered as a mitigating factor when excluding an individual or entity convicted under Federal or State law of program or health care fraud. Accordingly, we are correcting Sec. 1001.201(b)(3)(i) to assure the technical correctness of these regulations.
