Abstract
The method for reducing fraud in a non-health government benefit program entails by registering a service provider with a non-health government agency and issuing a service provider identification code, registering at least one service of the service provider with the non-health government agency and identifying a claim code for each registered service; issuing a smart card to an individual related to a benefits program of the non-health government agency wherein the individual has an identification code and the smart card has a feature to identify the individual; using the smart card to determine if the individual is the authorized card bearer and is eligible for the non-health government benefit program; using the smart card to determine if a service provider is preauthorized to provide a registered product under the non-health government program; and using the smart card to facilitate a transmission between the service provider and the non-health government agency.
