ENSURING PROGRAM INTEGRITY IN BENEFIT SYSTEMS

摘要

A method of ensuring program integrity in a benefit system includes accessing sets of data from two or more data sources. Data from at least one of the data sources relates to eligibility of a recipient to receive a benefit under a government program. Electronic data matching is performed using the data sources. The data sources used for the electronic data matching includes one or more government data sources and may include one or more commercial data sources. Results from the electronic data matching using two or more of the data sources are displayed in a consolidated view. Based on the electronic data matching, assessments are made relating to eligibility of the recipient. Based on the eligibility assessments, one or more recommendations are made regarding eligibility of the recipient.
