Social Security Sent More than $40 Million in Checks to Dead People, Inspector General Finds
Thursday, September 17, 2009
By Karen Schuberg


(CNSNews.com) – The Social Security Administration (SSA) has issued benefit checks totaling $40.3 million to an estimated 6,100 beneficiaries for months – and in some cases for decades -- after receiving notification of their deaths, according to a June audit report from the agency’s Office of Inspector General.

Approximately 1,760 of the 6,100 listed as deceased actually were dead, the government auditor estimated. The rest were alive, but had been wrongly listed as deceased.

During a sample audit in 2008, the inspector general uncovered 228 cases where beneficiaries had been receiving payments from SSA when they were already listed as dead. Of those, 88 were verified to have died. Another 140 were found to still be alive.

“SSA improperly paid these 88 deceased beneficiaries approximately $2.0 million,” the OIG report noted.

The remainder were alive, but had been reported as deceased in the federal agency’s Numident master file, a database of Social Security information tied to person’s Social Security number.

In one case, Social Security sent a deceased beneficiary monthly checks of $1,185 for 18 years until October 2008, even though she died in April of 1990. SSA had listed the New York City death certificate number on the Numident records one month after her death, but her name was not removed from the Social Security payment roll and SSA continued to send her approximately $210,000 in 222 improper payments.

“Our review of available information indicated that someone cashed these check payments,” the inspector general reported. “To date, SSA has not recovered any of the improper payments. The OIG has arrested a suspect and is awaiting judicial action on this case.”

In another case, improper payments were made for 30 years after the death of a payee.

The sample audit led the OIG to conduct a wider audit – and to conclude that 1,760 of the estimated 6,100 beneficiaries still getting checks were actually deceased, the report stated.

“Our audit results indicated that a large percentage of these beneficiaries were actually alive, and that death entries recorded on their Numidents were erroneous,” the report said. “However, our audit results also indicated that a number of these beneficiaries were deceased, and that dates of death recorded on their Numidents were accurate.”

The inspector general’s office said it is concerned that Social Security could make approximately $6.9 million in additional improper payments over the next 12 months if these discrepancies are not corrected.”

Section 205(r) of the Social Security Act requires that the Social Security match state death records against Social Security payment records to identify and prevent erroneous payments after death. In addition, SSA matches death records from other federal, state, and local agencies.

The proven greatest stimulas job created in America is a bank Executive job. You can make all the mistakes you want and the government lets you off the hook and the taxpayers are forced to pay for your bad judgment skills.

Another way of looking at it is that the government has made Banks risk free investment...just tax the people and run the money presses and we in the right spots can reap all the rewards SAD

We should not forget who was forcing banks to make ill advised loans. Unfortunately the Government was a major factor in causing the current problems. They pretty much had to assist the banks due to their dictating the lending policies. After all everyone is entitled "own a home" regardless of whether they are credit worthy. You can thank our Gov't for that. However, despite all of that we can count on them to take care of health care. LOL!! I feel much better now.

Main Entry: hyp·o·crite
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English ypocrite, from Anglo-French, from Late Latin hypocrita, from Greek hypokritçs actor, hypocrite, from hypokrinesthai
Date: 13th century
1 : a person who puts on a false appearance of virtue or religion
2 : a person who acts in contradiction to his or her stated beliefs or feelings





I think hypocrisy goes both ways! To use "past failings" to justify dismissing current failings is about as hypocritical as one can get.

Acorn is now going to sue the 2 journalists. this is just going to open up the entire organization at the trial. Acorn apparently believes it will have the last laugh. If the judge who is assigned the case has integrity, we'll see. If I had to bet, I would bet Acorn has its judge picked out already.

I wonder who their lawyers are and what their connection is to democrats. Corruption breads more corruption.

That's just my point. Because it was just as rampant in the last administration and he didn't raise hell, then he is expected to remain silent now????? That is not logical. It's a whole new ballgame now. Different teams! Different QB! Different season! Of course he is going to raise flags against something he doesn't believe in. That's what people do. Just as you raise flags against things you don't believe in. But for you to DISMISS current issues and expect others to dismiss them because of what happened in the "past administration" is just as hypocritical or in my opinion even more so.

see, I understand how we approach news from our angle effects how we view and perceive. Yet I am not speaking horizontally as I am vertically with respect to corruption. Left and Right hold little water to true corruption, both can be bought and both have been bought. IMPACT should drive the news, not what direction it comes from. GWB's administration was all but ran by lobbyists. Obama claimed his wasn't but I'm sorry, the black vote alone can't put that man in office as so many limbic brained individuals seem to believe. The problem this nation has is that when our party is in power, they no longer represent the people but they wait on all fours for that lobbying money to wade in. Perhaps next time people rally and march they'll do it while their party is in power and demand representation rather than passivity because it is someone they elected.

What do you think? ACORN is a silly witch hunt. I want health care reform. But I more than fervently speak out against his appeasement of the large Banking industry, HE WILL give in to lobbying pressure being applied by the insurance companies. I'm not expressing passivity in the least, unlike Republicans, I don't have a cover over my eyes while I point out the other parties problems. I always have to temper individuals who think Obama is something different then the status quo. Only thing different is the color of his skin. Unfortunately that is all some people see on both sides. I'd love to stand up to him on issues. But I'm one person. Structure and agency are two things that must work in unison to make a difference. Right now we are so fragmented as a populace that we won't change a DAMN thing.

You liken liberals to socialists so I make a broad based stereotype about republicans and you get your feelings hurt? You poor thing.

Also, your resume doesnt impress me and your stabs at my age do not faze me. I have been hearing this asinine argument that I will be changing my mind "when I grow up." I am not sure when you think that will be, but if anything I have become more steadfast in my position. I dont think Obama is the savior, but I also dont buy into you and your doomsday theory that evil and corruption sprang from the earth after he was elected. I actually seem to remember you defending the previous administration and now you are admonishing a new one that has done very little different

With all due respect, and I only speak for my self, I don't fear change. Go back a LOT more than 8 years and what we are looking at is a repeat of history. Imminently facing an unworldly deficit, staggering inflation, double digit unemployment and a social agenda to "change" the face of America. I do fear the repeat of the above, this is not "change", it is history. I lived through this in the 70's and 80's and by all indications the previous administration and the present have done and are doing nothing but sending the country down the same road, digging an ever deepening hole that will be even more difficult to fill.

I guess I never realized just how deep the anti-Bush propaganda sunk into the minds of some Americans. Bush made a ton of mistakes and talked like a total moron at times but never once did he ever give the impression that he would do something that would forever alter the country that we live in. Dispite thousands and thousands of qualifed people(even his own) telling Obama that his healthcare plan will not work and will bankrupt this country he is still deadset on passing it. He doesn't have the experience, knowledge or intelligence to know more about this than the people who are fighting him on it yet he still pushes forward. The key to being a great leader is to know who to listen to and who not to. Obama has demonstrated none of that. He is pushing his healthcare plan on America even though Americans have made it plain they don't want it and people way smarter than he is have told him it won't work. That should worry us all.

LOL that's about as 1 sided an analysis of a person as you can possibly get! Not only did W follow HORRIBLE advice, it cost thousands of lives because coat and ties thought they knew what they were doing because the Heritage Foundation and other conservative think tanks told them so. They increased spending in Medicare to give the pharmaceutical companies a nice injection of money w/no checks on how much they charged. (something the democrats were as guilty of allowing). He is pushing a health care plan YOU and some don't like. But the policy of fear tactics and no has effectively worked and is passed off as if it is something structurally wrong. Obama made too many promises he cant deliver on because so many congressman and senators are in the pocket of the middle man. It's funny seeing you call Obama inexperienced, what did W do? Ran a bunch of failed businesses and held the ceremonial position of governor in Texas. Rove was more the Pres that that nitwit.

You absolutely haven't the slightest idea what you are talking about. You are drinking too much Kool Aid under the guise of trying to play the middle. You may be left of R80. You completely ignore the facts to put forth your far left agenda. I am not sure what your background is but I am thinking educator. Your attempts to appear objective are just silly. Why don't you just admit what you are? I will do the same. I am a conservative. If you really look at FACTS and not the liberal fiction, which is based on revisionist history, you will see the light. Now its time for you to respond with your meaningless vernacular.

I am a ABSOLUTE NERD when it comes to reading, be it Ayn Rand and if you mean Liberty and Tyranny by Levin, I have read it, critiqued it and spent a lot of time debunking his distortion and perversion of true libertarianism which most people on the right have never fully analyzed. I have read a lot of Marx as have plenty of economics majors and theorists. HE is still considered an economists and his critiques have done more to help Capitalism to hurt. In fact a famous statement of his was to denounce Marxists by saying if that is Marxism I'm not a Marxists. Most attempts at it have not taken the path he spoke of which necessitated Capitalism. They chose to circumnavigate around that. I suggest you read him, Weber and Durkheim. While considered classics, they are surprisingly relevant today.

No, I'm the furthest thing from a hippy, but go figure you generalizing is no big surprise! Simple our economic model based on unlimited growth, nature has limited resources.

LOL funny that you think it is hippies who are drawing this up when it was the Pentagon drawing up plans for just these scenarios as well as insurance companies, and other industries based on prediction of future impediments to our civilization.

nor does it makes your right. But I understand in a narrow hallway that is your brain it is impossible to view things from varying angles

absolutely, hatred, vitriol and ad hominem responses to honest questions. Oh and i'm sure commmie, fascists, hitler and other stuff that those idiots post up on boards when marching :)

lol yeah, because I run to the non-sports forum and post stuff they say on here like you all do everytime Fox has breaking news lmao please ;)

I'd say that is an accurate description of the Republican agenda, simple, NO, bfuscate, confuse and scare! Can't be a Republican party w/o a boogie man, real or perceived.

You really make this easy. LOL> Talk to me about those scientist. Also, whats the problem with the NRA?? Its called the constitution!!! Because the NRA does not agree with your views they should be disbanded.? That's the difference between conservatives and liberals, we never try and prevent your rights under the constitution conversely liberals want to restrict the constitutional rights of conservatives. Discourse is healthy but it should not be at the expense of the alternate point of view.

About what scientists? Over 99%of peer reviewed science journals don't deny it, in fact many deniers have now jumped on board, yet the only question for them is just how significant our additions are to the environment. Really you should read more then right wing hog wash.

Absolutely nothing wrong with owning guns, I own 4. But the NRA is just fool of over compensating small penises needing a gun to feel self assured :) haha j/k but seriously no one is gonna take your guns away! :rolleyes:

and please, Conservatives never try to prevent rights? haha like abortion, gay marriage (which would make it easy for all those gays in the closet in the Republican party) and other things you guys deem UN-CHRISTIAN. I can connect with fiscal conservatives much more than social conservatives.

Don't they say ignorance is bliss? You are the poster child. Thank God people are not as easily swayed as you. You would be a classic study in why liberals ultimately end up conservatives. I think intellectually some day you will figure it out. In the interim, we will have to chuckle but be concerned at your deference to reality. You have similar traits to Obama. VERY SCARY!!!

It's just old set in their way ignorant fools as yourself who would rather be wrong and be Republican or conservative.

That is the most absurd thing I have ever read. In fact, most scientist, not receiving gov't funding, believe global warming attributable to human activity is miniscule. You should read more than left wing hog wash. I can assure you I do. But when it comes to substance the left is severely lacking.

Also with regard to abortion, gary marriage, etc. when did those become rights? The bottom line it shoud be left to the states to determine allowable activities, not the federal gov't. That is the whole crux of our constitution. You should try reading it. While I am not a proponent of abortion or gay marriage the States need to decide on these issues not the feds.

Finally, why don't you share with me how you share with the fiscal conservatives? It would be interesting interpretive economics and good fodder.

Since they were Americans like you and me! But I'll give you this much, I do see a middle ground with states deciding. I think I could live with that

Oh I have, I just don't worship the thing as you people who are supposed Christians yet revere it to the point of idoltry. I happen to like it's malleability you people seem to prefer it's strict interpretation. I guess the middle east isn't the only place with fundamentalists.

Smaller govt being that I see it as the tool of the corporate entities that manipulate it to generate funds thought govt contracts. Be it no bid or bid. As well as the Fed's biggest responsibility to rescue banks and corporations that use risk of money for money with no product. Derivatives, hedge funds etc.
I believe in a more cooperative libertarianism that gives the stake holders not just stock holders power over their product and shared risk. Where as it is now, they carry all the risk when a decision is made by a person who likely never stepped foot in the industry's halls or factories.

And just to be a good person...I hope you understand I don't mean any of those things or names I called ya. I think you're smart, your just an idealogue. I listen to right and left when the conversation is adult like and rational. When slogans and other silliness is left out. IT is funny. You have no idea how great the conversations are when people can talk to each other in that manner. I think the discourse sown by our media really cuts us like a knife and makes us forget we are Americans whether black, brown, white or yellow, left or right, liberal or conservative. So much hate. I love it when I have intelligent discourse in class between students of opposite ideology and watch them work it out in a manner that I think we could if only the media didn't highlight only our differences. I still have hope in us as a nation. But rotting doesn't begin on the left or right but I think it foments when we see each other as just that and not compatriots. Sad place we're at, and I've been guilty of harsh words myself. Even a teacher can learn from students and kids! I wish ya well BO, aside from our barrage of childish remarks I think we could have a more adult like convo next time! ;)

DD I think there is probably alot of ground that we may have in common that may surprise us both. I agree on the adult convo also. I can be guilty of lack of civilitywhich I am not necessarily proud of. Sometimes passion rears its ugly head. Finally, I realize you see me as an idealogue but I assure you I am not. Could it be that we are just diametrically opposed with different interpretations on the issues at hand?

I love it when you claim others are set in their ways but you will defend yours without the possibility that you are set in yours. Hypocrisy at it's best. You are NOT OPEN-MINDED... you are more close-minded than your students ever could be... put together.

Such an angry man...yes I know Obama is gonna indoctrinate the kids...I'll return when the discussion is intelligent again, me and Borange made amends, I have done the same with Pick6, OldBison, even BillyFred, I think you just have a personal vendetta. It's understood!

you know it's funny, I didn't do anything but extend a proverbial olive branch, but I think you want people to hate me! "Don't believe him" lol As if I'm manipulating people. I didn't ask him to change his beliefs or anything of that sort. But we agreed to be more civil next time. Yet who comes crying in. Seriously man, be it you thinking you uncovered some alternative motive by declaring I'm IDoCare to this, it really is pathetic. You once left to spend more time with your children. I think you need to do it again and quit worring about people agreeing to disagree and doing so civilly! It's very telling of your intent.
