Exclusion Screening, Employment Eligibility, and Employer Obligations
Makes sure no one the Agency employs or contracts with is excluded from federal or Ohio health care programs, by checking the federal exclusion lists at hire and monthly and the Ohio Medicaid exclusion and suspension list, and sets the Agency's duties as an employer: employment eligibility verification, Ohio workers' compensation through the state insurance fund, wage-and-hour compliance, taxes, and the attestations ODA requires.
