PIIA Reform Act

This bill would create an “Overpayment Czar” in the federal government to lead efforts to find, stop, and fix improper payments—money sent to the wrong person, in the wrong amount, or without proper support. It also aims to tighten oversight and accountability so government dollars are spent correctly.

Key points

• Who is affected: Federal agencies that make payments; the offices that oversee payment accuracy.
• What changes: Adds a central leader focused on overpayments and strengthens oversight and accountability for improper payments across programs.
