REPORT BY THE U, S.



General Accounting Office








Flaws In Controls Over The Supplemental

Security Income Computerized System

Cause Millions In Erroneous Payments



The Social Security Administration uses a
highly complex computerized system to com-
pute benefit payments for more than 4 mil-
lion needy aged, blind, and disabled persons
currently on the Supplemental Security In-
come program.

Over $25 million has been paid out erro-
neously because of weaknesses in the system's
internal controls.

This report discusses the adequacy and effec-
tiveness of the system and contains recom-
mendations to the Secretary of HEW to cor-
rect these weaknesses.
