Common Questions

What is the most common reason for a Therapist exclusion?
The most common reason for a Therapist exclusion is License Revocation or Suspension (463 cases, 74% of the category), followed by Conviction: Program-Related Crime (75). That reflects the regulatory pathway most often used against this provider type, not necessarily the most severe conduct.
Is Therapist's exclusion volume above or below average?
Yes. Therapist sits in the higher-volume half of LEIE provider-type categories, ranked #18 of 137 by exclusion count. A higher share mainly reflects how many therapist providers bill federal programs and how closely those claims get audited, it is not a direct measure of misconduct prevalence within the category.
