This book was released on 1981 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: U.S. productivity growth has declined dramatically over the past 12 years. In the past 3 years, it has virtually ceased. Recognizing the importance of productivity, the President established the National Productivity Council and assigned private sector productivity responsibilities to the Departments of Labor and Commerce. The Council was to guide and coordinate these and other Federal efforts to improve productivity and to serve as the Government's primary contact with the private sector on productivity issues. GAO examined the effectiveness of the Council regarding private sector productivity. GAO found that, in over 2 years of existence, the National Productivity Council has been relatively inactive and has largely ignored the functions assigned to it. It has seldom met, has not provided guidance to Federal productivity programs, and has not become recognized as the Government's productivity focal point. The Department of Labor did not act on its leadership responsibilities. The Department of Commerce undertook significant productivity initiatives despite the Council's lack of involvement. The national productivity effort has been ineffective because it lacked support from the executive branch. As a result: (1) Federal programs directly related to productivity improvement are funded and operated without any central review, direction, coordination, or evaluation; (2) there is no recognized spokesperson for productivity concerns; and (3) there is no open channel for airing private sector problems and concerns about productivity related policies. An organization should be established to: (1) provide central review and coordination of Federal programs directed at productivity improvement; (2) provide a productivity perspective in economic and budgetary decisionmaking; (3) provide an open and nonthreatening channel for private sector problems and concerns about productivity-related policies; and (4) develop a national productivity plan outlining what the Federal Government is doing and should be doing to increase productivity.

Download or read book Standards for Internal Control in the Federal Government written by United States Government Accountability Office and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-03-24 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Policymakers and program managers are continually seeking ways to improve accountability in achieving an entity's mission. A key factor in improving accountability in achieving an entity's mission is to implement an effective internal control system. An effective internal control system helps an entity adapt to shifting environments, evolving demands, changing risks, and new priorities. As programs change and entities strive to improve operational processes and implement new technology, management continually evaluates its internal control system so that it is effective and updated when necessary. Section 3512 (c) and (d) of Title 31 of the United States Code (commonly known as the Federal Managers? Financial Integrity Act (FMFIA)) requires the Comptroller General to issue standards for internal control in the federal government.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The balance between state and federal health care financing for low-income people has been a matter of considerable debate for the last 40 years. Some argue for a greater federal role, others for more devolution of responsibility to the states. Medicaid, the backbone of the system, has been plagued by an array of problems that have made it unpopular and difficult to use to extend health care coverage. In recent years, waivers have given the states the flexibility to change many features of their Medicaid programs; moreover, the states have considerable flexibility to in establishing State Children's Health Insurance Programs. This book examines the record on the changing health safety net. How well have states done in providing acute and long-term care services to low-income populations? How have they responded to financial incentives and federal regulatory requirements? How innovative have they been? Contributing authors include Donald J. Boyd, Randall R. Bovbjerg, Teresa A. Coughlin, Ian Hill, Michael Housman, Robert E. Hurley, Marilyn Moon, Mary Beth Pohl, Jane Tilly, and Stephen Zuckerman.
