Sanctions and Watchlists 

Orange Tree's Sanctions and Watchlists Services

• OIG List of Excluded Individuals/Entities

  The Office of the Inspector General (OIG) search is specific to healthcare. The healthcare and long-term care industries require certain specialized screening to ensure the individuals or entities being hired or retained as employees or vendors have no incidents on their records involving past system abuse or fraud. A key screening option is the Office of Inspector General (OIG) List of Excluded Individuals/Entities (LEIE).

• Federal Drug Administration (FDA) Debarment List

  The Federal Drug Administration (FDA) Debarment List is another key tool in a comprehensive employment background screening program, particularly for the food and drug manufacturing and research industries. Individuals on the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) Debarment List are barred from working in the pharmaceutical industry, making this screen a key part of compliant hiring.

  Our Federal Drug Administration (FDA) Debarment List service searches the debarment list maintained by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), identifying individuals convicted of a felony under federal law for conduct relating to development or approval of any drug product, or otherwise relating to any drug product under the federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act.

• OFAC, SDN List

  If your organization does business with individuals or companies outside of the United States or you routinely find yourself hiring non-US applicants, the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) List may be a great fit for your employment background screening program.

  This background check service provided by Orange Tree searches the Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) List, maintained by the United States Department of Treasury, Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). The Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) List includes individuals and companies owned or controlled by, or acting for or on behalf of, targeted countries. It also lists individuals, groups and entities such as terrorists and narcotics traffickers designated under programs that are not country-specific. Individuals and companies included on the list of Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) have had their assets blocked and US persons are generally prohibited from doing business with them. Therefore, it's important to identify these individuals or companies as early as possible.
