Abstract
This rulemaking revises the OIG's exclusion and civil money penalty authorities set forth in 42 CFR parts 1001, 1002 and 1003, as a result of the Balanced Budget Act of 1997, Public Law 105-33. These revisions are intended to protect Medicare and other Federal health care programs by enhancing the OIG's administrative sanction authority through new or revised exclusion and civil money penalty provisions.
