From the monthly LEIE CSV published on oig.hhs.gov under federal-record open-data conventions. SleekRank reads the public URL directly each refresh cycle. OIG also publishes monthly update files with just adds and drops; SleekRank can consume either, though the full file is simpler to wire.

OIG publishes a new full LEIE file once per month, normally in the first or second week. Individual exclusions can be entered or reinstated between full publications, but the public file rolls them up monthly.

A slug like {name-slug}-{credential}-{exclusion-year}-{state}-{exclusion-type} reads well in SERP and stays unique even when two providers share a name. Include a short hash of name, DOB, and exclusion date as a suffix when the readable slug collides with another excluded provider in the file.

Yes. The LEIE includes a reinstatement archive listing previously excluded providers who have been reinstated to federal program participation. Map the reinstatement_date field to a timeline element on the page so reinstated providers are clearly distinguishable from currently excluded ones in your render.

LEIE entries sometimes include the provider NPI. When present, render a link from the LEIE page to the corresponding /npi/{slug}/ page in a parallel SleekRank page group, and a reverse link from the NPI page. When NPI is absent in LEIE, use name plus DOB plus state as a soft join with a confidence flag.

The LEIE is a federal public record published explicitly to enable third-party compliance screening. Republishing the data is legal and intended. However, do display the OIG publication date prominently and link to the official OIG record so readers can verify any individual entry against the canonical federal source themselves.

Reinstated providers appear in the LEIE reinstatement archive with the reinstatement date. Keep the page published but render a clear "reinstated" banner above the original exclusion record. Removing the page would erase the historical record and harm the legitimate compliance use case the corpus is built to serve.

Compliance officers screening new hires or vendors run the candidate name and NPI against the LEIE. A SleekRank page surfaced via Google search confirms either no match (clear) or an exact match (escalate). The page is the audit-trail link the officer pastes into the candidate file to document the screening.
