Maximus Launches Accuracy Assistant to Enhance SNAP Program Efficiency
- Technological Innovation: Maximus's Accuracy Assistant leverages predictive analytics and intelligent automation to analyze SNAP case files in real-time, enabling the identification of potential data inconsistencies before they become costly errors, thereby enhancing state governments' decision-making efficiency and accuracy.
- Policy Adaptation: The launch of this solution comes as states prepare for upcoming federal changes to SNAP in October 2027, which will require them to fund a portion of benefits based on payment error rates, with the Accuracy Assistant helping to mitigate financial risks associated with exceeding the 6% error threshold.
