Common Questions

What is the most common reason for a NIH exclusion?
The most common reason for a NIH exclusion is Misdemeanor: Healthcare Fraud (7 cases, 54% of the category), followed by Fraud, Kickbacks, or Prohibited Activities (3). That reflects the regulatory pathway most often used against this provider type, not necessarily the most severe conduct.
Is NIH's exclusion volume above or below average?
NIH sits in the lower-volume half of LEIE provider-type categories, ranked #67 of 137 by exclusion count. Fewer exclusions can mean fewer providers of this type bill federal programs, less audit exposure, or genuinely lower violation rates, the LEIE data alone cannot separate those causes.
