The short answer
Fraud, Kickbacks, or Prohibited Activities is the statutory reason on 2 of 4 LEIE rows tagged to HEMATOLOGY (50%).
The live HHS OIG List of Excluded Individuals/Entities lists 4 exclusions tagged to HEMATOLOGY (0.0% of tracked rows). Largest state concentration: TX (1 rows). Volume tracks federal billing exposure and audit pathways, not a misconduct rate inside the specialty. Dataset vintage: August 2026.
Thin LEIE volume band
HEMATOLOGY in the thin-volume third
4 exclusions place HEMATOLOGY in the bottom third by volume among 85 active provider types. Leading statutory reason: Fraud, Kickbacks, or Prohibited Activities (2, 50% of the category). TX, TN, KY account for the largest share of HEMATOLOGY exclusions on record.
Thin volume (4 rows) can mean fewer federal billers, less audit exposure, or genuinely lower violation rates ; TX still concentrates 25% of this sparse book. LEIE alone cannot separate those causes.
