Improper Payments: Federal and State Coordination Needed to Report National Improper Payment Estimates on Federal Programs
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.
