Fraud in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) agencies and Integrated Eligibility Systems (IES) is accelerating at unprecedented levels. Monthly application fraud rates have nearly doubled since 2024, and agencies now lose $4.14 for every $1 of fraudulent benefits—a figure that climbs to $4.55 for highly integrated eligibility systems.

Join Government Technology and LexisNexis Risk Solutions for an essential briefing on the latest findings from the 4th annual 2025 LexisNexis Risk Solutions True Cost of Fraud Study for SNAP and IES— exploring how digital transformation, integrated eligibility, and increasingly sophisticated schemes are reshaping program integrity challenges. Backed by exclusive new data, this webinar will equip agencies with proven strategies to protect resources, reduce administrative burden, and strengthen services for eligible families during a period of historic SNAP change.

What You’ll Learn:
  • The True Financial Impact: What’s driving the $4.14 Fraud Multiplier and the rising share of intentional program violations.
  • Emerging Threats: The latest patterns, from synthetic identities and botnet-driven applications to EBT skimming and dual participation.
  • IES Risks & Rewards: Why broader program integration can increase exposure—and how coordinated strategies reduce it.
  • Program Optimization: Best practices for balancing modernization, fraud prevention, and beneficiary experience.
  • Cross-Program Coordination: How identity verification, information sharing, cross-training, and data quality improvements cut fraud and payment errors.
