Our objective was to determine the appropriateness of payments the Social Security Administration (SSA) issued to beneficiaries and representative payees who were listed as deceased on Arkansas Department of Health vital records. We also identified non-beneficiaries who were deceased according to Arkansas vital records but whose death information did not appear in SSA records.
