Mr. Chairman and Members of the  Subcommittee:

     We are here today at your  request to discuss the use of compu-

ter matching as a means for detecting  and preventing error, waste,

and fraud in Government programs.  You  asked us to present our

views on whether computer matching  is a cost effective management

tool, and whether it can be used without  compromising the privacy

rights of individuals.  You also asked  us to address a nmber  of

specific issues, such as how often matches  should be made, problems

in performing them, and other benefits  of computer match ng.

     Based upon our experiences as well  as those of other agen-

cies, we believe computer matching can be  a very cost effective

tool for detecting error and fraud  in Government entitlement
