Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Description of Possible Committee Amendment Proposed by Chairman Rostenkowski to H. R. 4333 (the Technical Corrections Act of 1988)
The Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (cobra) of 1985 (p.l. 99-272) prohibits the Department of Health and Human Services from reducing afdc payments to States for excess errors identified by the afdc quality control system. This prohibition extends to July 1, 1988.
In addition, cobra also requires that two studies be conducted by the Secretary of Health and Human Services and the National Academy of Sciences of the current quality control system. These studies are to examine how to best operate the quality control system to improve program administration as well as to provide reasonable data on which to penalize States with excessive levels of erroneous payments. The National Academy of Sciences study was received by the Committee in February 1988; the hhs study was received in April 1988.
Table 1 illustrates the pending and projected sanction amounts and the hhs and C80 schedule for collecting these funds under current law.
