Does that mean she cannot receive major medical care while in prison?


I don’t think so. https://oig.hhs.gov/newsroom/news-releases-articles/hhs-oig-...

“An exclusion is an administrative sanction that protects Federal health care programs and the people they serve by prohibiting payment for any health care item or service furnished, ordered, or prescribed by an excluded person.”

So, she can’t be paid for delivering services or products that are used in Medicare, but others can be paid for services and products benefitting her.


Good.
