SUMMARY

H.R. 3716 would assist states in identifying health care providers who are ineligible to
participate in their state Medicaid or Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP)
programs because the provider was terminated from participating in another state's
programs or in the Medicare program.

CBO  estimates that the bill would reduce direct spending by $28 million over the
2016-2026 period. Because the legislation would affect direct spending; pay-as-you-go
procedures apply. Enacting the bill would not affect revenues.

CBO  estimates that enacting H.R. 3716 would not increase net direct spending or
on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2027.

H.R. 3716 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA).
