Title:
Improper Payments: Government-Wide Estimates and Reduction Strategies
Corporate Author:
GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABILITY OFFICE WASHINGTON DC WASHINGTON DC United States
Report Date:
2014-07-09
Abstract:
Federal agencies reported an estimated 105.8 billion in improper payments in fiscal year 2013, a decrease from the prior year revised estimate of 107.1 billion. The fiscal year 2013 estimate was attributable to 84 programs spread among 18 agencies. The specific programs included in the government-wide estimate may change from year to year. For example, with Office of Management and Budget OMB approval, an agency can obtain relief from estimating improper payments if the agency has reported improper payments under a certain threshold for at least 2 consecutive years. A net of 10 additional programs were added to the government-wide estimate by OMB in fiscal year 2013 when compared to fiscal year 2012.
