The bill mandates the secretaries for children and families and health and environment in Kansas to enhance the verification process for eligibility in the food assistance program. This includes entering into data matching agreements with commercial entities that provide real-time employment and income data, or presenting data comparison options to the legislative coordinating council by November 1, 2025. The bill also requires the appropriate secretary to regularly review data from various state and federal sources, including vital statistics, labor department records, and corrections data, to monitor changes in circumstances that may affect eligibility for public assistance programs.

Additionally, the bill stipulates that the secretary for children and families must publicly disclose aggregate data on noncompliance and fraud investigations related to food assistance on a quarterly basis. This includes information on the number of households investigated for fraud, improper payments, and funds recovered. The intent of the bill is to ensure more accurate and efficient management of public assistance programs while maintaining transparency regarding fraud and compliance efforts.
