Improving the Social Security Representative Payee Program: Serving Beneficiaries and Minimizing Misuse - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

This volume reports on the work of the Committee on Social Security Representative Payees, which, on behalf of Congress, conducted a survey in 2004 to determine how payments to individuals and organizational representative payees are being managed and used on behalf of beneficiaries. They assessed the extent payees are not meeting Social Security Administration standards, whether policies are practical, types of payees that have the highest risk for misuse of benefits, and ways to reduce misuse and protect beneficiaries. The survey was of about 5,000 representative payees, and is combined with visits to field offices and studies of other data. Committee members are consultants and academics in policy methodology, law, and public policy and health in the US. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
