Book excerpt: Improper payments are a long-standing, significant problem in the federal government, estimated at nearly $137 billion in fiscal year 2015. GAO previously reported that one strategy to help prevent improper payments is up-front verification of eligibility through data sharing and matching. Established by OMB in 2011 and hosted by Treasury, the DNP working system is a web-based, centralized data matching service. GAO was asked to review the DNP working system. This report examines the extent to which (1) OMB and Treasury developed the DNP working system and obtained access to relevant databases, (2) selected agencies used the DNP working system to help review eligibility, and (3) OMB monitored the use of the system. GAO reviewed relevant laws and guidance; interviewed officials at OMB, Treasury, and 10 user agencies selected in part based on size and reported improper payment estimates, including those with the largest reported estimates; and analyzed DNP working system documentation.

This book was released on 2017-09-13 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past several years, GAO has reported that federal agencies are not well positioned to meet requirements of the Improper Payments Information Act of 2002 (IPIA). For fiscal year 2005, estimated improper payments exceeded $38 billion but did not include some of the highest risk programs, such as Medicaid with outlays exceeding $181 billion for fiscal year 2005. Overall, state-administered programs and other nonfederal entities receive over $400 billion annually in federal funds. Thus, federal agencies and states share responsibility for the prudent use of these funds. GAO was asked to determine actions taken at the state level to help federal agencies estimate improper payments for state-administered federal programs and assistance needed from the federal level to support the respective federal agencies' implementation of IPIA.

Book excerpt: " Over the past decade, GAO has issued numerous reports and testimonies highlighting improper payment issues across the federal government as well as at specific agencies. Fiscal year 2011 marked the eighth year of implementation of the Improper Payments Information Act of 2002 (IPIA), as well as the first year of implementation for the Improper Payments Elimination and Recovery Act of 2010 (IPERA). IPIA requires executive branch agencies to annually identify programs and activities susceptible to significant improper payments, estimate the amount of improper payments for such programs and activities, and report these estimates along with actions taken to reduce them. IPERA amended IPIA and expanded requirements for recovering overpayments across a broad range of federal programs. This testimony addresses (1) federal agencies' reported progress in estimating and reducing improper payments; (2) challenges in meeting current requirements to estimate and evaluate improper payments, including the results of GAO's case study of the estimation methodology and corrective actions for the Foster Care program; and (3) possible strategies that can be taken to move forward in reducing improper payments. This testimony is primarily based on prior GAO reports, including the report released today on improper payment estimates in the Foster Care program. It also includes unaudited improper payment information recently presented in"
