Iowa Code Title VI. Human Services [Chs. 216-255A] § 217.35. Fraud and recoupment activities

Current as of January 01, 2024 | Updated by FindLaw Staff

<[Text subject to final changes by the Iowa Code Editor for Code 2024.]>

Notwithstanding the requirement for deposit of recovered moneys under section 239B.14, recovered moneys generated through fraud and recoupment activities are appropriated to the department to be used for additional fraud and recoupment activities performed by the department or the department of inspections, appeals, and licensing. The department may use the recovered moneys appropriated to add not more than five full-time equivalent positions, in addition to those funded by annual appropriations. The appropriation of the recovered moneys is subject to both of the following conditions:

1. The director determines that the investment can reasonably be expected to increase recovery of assistance paid in error, due to fraudulent or nonfraudulent actions, in excess of the amount recovered in the previous fiscal year.

2. The amount expended for the additional fraud and recoupment activities shall not exceed the amount of the projected increase in assistance recovered.
