Program Integrity

  • The Department of Social Services must have an active fraud control plan to insure that public benefits meet the needs of those individuals who are eligible to receive them.
  • The goal of Program Integrity is to assist the Department of Social Services in maintaining integrity and public accountability in the administration of its programs, and to provide investigation and advisory services to ensure appropriate and efficient use of available public resources.
  • Program Integrity staff investigate/resolve questionable information on pending applications, to prevent payments to ineligible families and/or detect/determine client misrepresentation or worker error in active cases, and to recover overpayments made in public assistance programs.
