Summary
Examines key provisions of P.L. 111-204, the Improper Payments Elimination and Recovery Act of 2010 (IPERA), which replaced and consolidated the requirements of both the Improper Payments Information Act of 2002 and the Recovery Audit Act, requiring improvements in agency improper payment estimation methodologies and improper payment reduction plans, and significantly expanding the scope and reporting requirements of recovery audit programs. Analyzes effectiveness of IPERA in reducing improper payments and increasing payment recoveries. Covers improper payments and audit recovery legislation; OMB guidance; and P.L. 112-248, the Improper Payments Elimination and Recovery Audit Improvement Act of 2012, which expands scope of data used to verify that payments are being made to eligible recipients and for the correct amount. Reviews S. 1360, the Improper Payments Agency Cooperation Enhancement Act of 2013, to provide for measures to improve accuracy of, and increase Federal agency access to, SSA Death Master File data.
