The Iowa Medicaid Sanctions list includes healthcare providers terminated “for cause” from the state’s Medicaid program, as required under Sections 1128 and 1902(a)(39) of the Social Security Act. Providers are terminated for violations such as presenting fraudulent payments, failing to provide or maintain quality services, failing to meet participation standards.
Services rendered or ordered by sanctioned providers, or by entities owned or managed by them, are not eligible for Medicaid reimbursement. The list supports due diligence and compliance monitoring by helping healthcare organizations and contractors verify provider eligibility. State Medicaid agencies are required to disclose these sanctions to prevent participation across federal programs.
