Reducing Waste & Improving Program Integrity

Democrats and Republicans may disagree over the size of government. They share a common interest, however, in making sure whatever federal support that does get signed into law actually delivers as intended. That’s where program integrity initiatives come into play—these efforts cut back on waste and fraud and make sure government programs work.

Program integrity initiatives can be utilized everywhere in government: upgrading technology to prevent Unemployment Insurance fraud, minimizing incorrect payments in Medicare, making sure anti-poverty benefits effectively reach families, and more.
