The Distribution of UI Overpayment Rates and Dollars by State, CY 2001
This study identifies "causes and states where UI overpayment errors are concentrated." The main part of the study comprises four tables. Two tables present state overpayment error rates that add to the "Annual Report Error Rate," which the Department has published annually since 1988. The tables simply show the rates sorted in two ways -- by states alphabetically and by total error rates. There are two parallel tables presenting the corresponding dollars overpaid. The data come from the Benefit Accuracy Measurement (BAM) program. The study excludes two states-Colorado and Puerto Rico-because the Department has decided it cannot publish their data for CY 2001. Both states deviated significantly from the prescribed BAM methodology during the year. Omitting them does not materially change the national results; together Colorado and Puerto Rico accounted for less than 2% of total payments in 2001. As this is written, the Department is beginning to consult with its partners and stakeholders about alternative measures payment accuracy and integrity. This consultation will influence the measure the Department uses to assess UI payment accuracy performance for the Government Performance and Results Act plans. The proposed operational overpayment error rate uses a smaller set of BAM overpayment error categories than the Annual Report rate. It is designed both to reduce the disparities among state overpayment rates and to represent the kinds of errors states can detect, establish and recover through their normal operations and Benefit Payment Control units. It eliminates certain kinds of overpayments that are (a) technical in nature, or (b) that many states do not count as errors under their laws, or (c) that states cannot recover if they are detected after the fact. Tables 3 and 4 display the proposed alternative overpayment rates and the components excluded from the Annual Report measure, and Tables 3a and 4a give the corresponding dollar overpayment amounts. Definition of BAM Error Causes Definitions of the types of errors included in the operational error rate and those technical errors that are excluded from it are discussed below. Operational Errors
Technical/Nonrecoverable
Findings by Error Cause: National Summary The following table summarizes the national totals. As has been the case for the last several years, benefit year earnings violations is the leading cause, followed by separation errors and work search errors. Together those three causes account for two thirds of all overpayments estimated by BAM. |

Note: Figures Exclude Colorado and Puerto Rico Findings by Error Cause: Findings Including State Detail Total Error Rates. Table 1 presents aggregate overpayment rates by state; Table 1a contains the data on dollars overpaid. In Tables 2 and 2a, the results are sorted from high to low. Four states reported rates of 3% or less; five states had rates of 18% or above, with the highest being Virginia at 22%. Estimated amounts overpaid range from less than $700,000 in North Dakota (which combines a low error rate with small size), to the vicinity of $200 million or more in California, Illinois, and Texas. California is in the high-error amount group because its size (its error rate is 5.6%). Texas and Illinois both have double-digit error rates. |

An Analysis of the Proposed Operational Overpayment Rate The proposed alternative accuracy measure focuses on the categories of overpayment errors that are most detectable and recoverable by state operations and BPC units, and can thus be most directly related to overpayments established and recovered by BPC units. These are overpayments which state law deems to be recoverable, and comprise the categories due to benefit year earnings and income, Separation, Able and Available, and the Other Eligibility category which includes payments made to claimants who refused an offer of suitable work, were self-employed, or who were illegal aliens. It excludes overpayments under all cause categories that the state could not recover, as well as the following categories of recoverable violations: Work Search, ES Registration, Base Period Earnings, and minor miscellaneous violations including dependents' allowance violations. Work Search and ES registration violations are excluded because many state do not make them eligibility conditions. Also, such violations are very difficult for state BPC units to detect even if they are recoverable. BPC units rarely detect base period wage errors, about 40% of which are not recoverable nationwide. Only a handful of states provide dependents' allowances. Errors in the Other Eligibility category again are relatively unlikely to be detected by BPC methods. Table 3 shows that this measure produces an aggregate error rate of about 4.7%, and state rates range from about 1% in Oklahoma, Georgia, and North Dakota to about10% in Maryland and Delaware. Benefit year earnings and income and separation violations represent four fifths of these overpayments. The alternative measure yields about $1.4 billion in overpayments, versus nearly $2.45 billion for the usual Annual Report measure (Table 3a). Tables 4 and 4a are the complement to Tables 3 and 3a. Excluded overpayments amounted to 3.5% of benefits paid in CY 2001. Three error causes account for three quarters of the overpayments in this table: work search (35%), ES Registration (20%) and Base Period Wage violations (19%). Nearly half (48%) of the excluded overpayments were non-recoverable. |
