OIG. HHS may exclude WellCare from participating in all Federal health care programs until WellCare pays the Settlement Amount and reasonable costs as set forth above and in Paragraph 1, above. OIG-HHS will provide written notice of any such exclusion to WellCare. WellCare waives any further notice of the exclusion under 42 U.S.C. § 1320a-7(b)(7), and agrees not to contest such exclusion either administratively or in any state or federal court. Reinstatement to program participation is not automatic. If at the end of the period of exclusion WellCare wishes to apply for reinstatement, WellCare must submit a written request for reinstatement to OIG-HHS in accordance with the provisions of 42 C.F.R. §§ 1001.3001-.3005. WellCare will not be reinstated unless and until OIG-HHS approves such request for reinstatement.
