Payment Integrity Information Act of 2019

Improper Payments Elimination and Recovery Act of 2020 ----------------------------------------------- This act amends several laws related to improper payments by executive agencies. The key changes include: * Definition of Improper Payments: The law defines "improper payments" as payments made under a Federal contract, grant, or other agreement for which the recipient is not eligible or has incorrectly been deemed eligible. * Do Not Pay Initiative: The Do Not Pay Initiative requires executive agencies to review prepayment and preaward procedures and ensure that a thorough review of available databases with relevant information on eligibility occurs to determine program or award eligibility and prevent improper payments before the release of any Federal funds. * Data Analytics and Fraud Risk Assessments: Executive agencies are required to conduct fraud risk assessments and use data analytics techniques to identify potential improper payments, including those resulting from fraudulent activities.
