111-1          DETERMINING THE AMOUNT OF A PROGRAM LOSS

The caseworker calculates the amount of the overpayment according to program policy.  Rework each error month through the appropriate EIS Eligibility Information System benefit determination screen, print the screen, and then press the PF9 key.  Do not press <ENTER>.  Pressing will generate an unnecessary overpayment amount on the Temporary Assistance Benefit History (TABH Temporary Assistance Benefit History ) and/or Food Stamp Benefit History (FSBH Food Stamp Benefit History ) screens.  For APA Adult Public Assistance , the caseworker must calculate the overpayment manually.  The amount of an overpayment is determined by subtracting what should have been issued from what was actually issued for each error month.

Attach copies of the EIS Eligibility Information System or manual budgets reflecting the overpayment or underpayment determination to the Report of Claim Determination e-Form (Gen #95), and submit them to the Claims Specialist, Benefit Recovery Unit/Program Integrity and Analysis Section in Juneau.  

Note:  

A program loss occurs for benefits issued pending the fair hearing decision when the hearing decision supports the agency’s action.
