Global watchlist search
The global watchlist search checks government and regulatory databases for individuals who are prohibited from certain industries or appear on most-wanted lists. It's included in every Ethur package.
What it covers
- Exclusion and debarment lists — including OIG and SAM — that bar individuals from healthcare, government contracting, and finance
- Most-wanted and fugitive lists
- Sanctions and regulatory databases
How to order
- You don't need to — it's included in Basic, Essential, and Complete and runs on every package order
- A standalone watchlist search is listed at $9/check; if you need it outside a package, contact support to set it up
What the candidate provides
Nothing extra — the watchlist runs on the identity details from the standard application.
What results show
- A clear result, or a list of potential matches with the source database for each
- Returns in minutes in most cases
- A watchlist hit is not a criminal conviction — review the source list and confirm the match before acting on it
Common problems
A common name produced several possible matches — what now?▼
Potential matches on common names need review against the candidate's identifiers before you treat them as confirmed. If you're unsure, contact support and we'll walk through the match details with you.
Is this enough for healthcare hiring?▼
The watchlist covers OIG and SAM at a general level. For clinical roles, the FACIS search goes deeper into healthcare-specific adverse records — see the FACIS guide.
