Report Description:
For our final report on FY 2020 improper payment reporting, our review objective was to determine the Department’s compliance with the Payment Integrity Information Act of 2019 (PIIA). To determine FY 2020 compliance, we reviewed the “Payment Integrity” section of the Department’s FY 2020 Agency Financial Report (AFR), accompanying materials to the AFR, and other improper payment-related documentation. We also assessed the Department’s efforts related to preventing and reducing improper payments.
Based on our review, we concluded that the Department did not comply with all criteria and therefore is not compliant under PIIA. We did not identify any actions needed to further improve prevention and reduction of improper payments. However, we made recommendations related to improving the Department’s annual risk assessment process.
