Public benefits agencies are being asked to safeguard every program dollar without making critical services harder to access. More sophisticated fraud, stretched investigative resources and fragmented information make that job more difficult, creating new urgency around prevention and accuracy.
That urgency now comes with higher financial stakes. Beginning in fiscal year 2028, states with SNAP payment error rates of 6% or higher will be responsible for a share of benefit costs — a significant departure from the traditional federal funding model. With the national average payment error rate above that threshold, agencies have a powerful incentive to identify vulnerabilities earlier and strengthen program integrity in a cost-effective, modernized way.
Join Government Technology for a practical conversation drawing on new market research and intelligence about the changing public benefits fraud landscape. We’ll unpack 10 key insights and explore why potential fraud cases go unworked, where disconnected information creates risk, and how agencies can focus resources on more actionable cases while moving beyond the costly "pay and chase" model.
Why attend:
- Unpack 10 insights shaping public benefits fraud.
- See how leading agencies are lowering SNAP payment error rates.
- Focus limited resources on more actionable cases.
- Move upstream from detection to earlier intervention.
