The Improper Payments Information Act (IPIA) of 2002 requires CMS to produce national error rates for Medicaid and SCHIP. To comply with the IPIA, CMS needs the information to be collected in order to provide some Federal overview of state eligibility determinations to ensure correctness and consistency among states and to use the State-specific error rates as the basis for calculating national eligibility error rates for Medicaid and SCHIP.
