Designed to combat both line-of-business fraud and cross-channel enterprise fraud, the framework can increase fraud detection rates, reduce false positives and streamline investigative resources. The framework includes components that support detection and alert generation, alert management and case management, as well as the new SAS Social Network Analysis solution. Industry-specific business rules, models and other capabilities will help government organizations to prevent and detect various types of fraudulent activities and manage organizations’ anti-fraud operations. The SAS Fraud Framework can make a substantive impact in many areas of government – from uncovering collusive patterns in entitlement programs such as Medicare and Medicaid to purchase-card fraud, bid-rigging and terrorist financing. SAS can help governments zero in on fraud faster by identifying difficult-to-detect patterns or anomalies in claims processing systems and identifying questionable claims before they are paid – thus avoiding the expensive process of recovery. In the area of tax and revenue, the SAS Fraud Framework can help recover unpaid taxes and greatly increase auditor efficiency by identifying tax audit targets and under-filers. Since 1976, SAS has been giving customers around the world THE POWER TO KNOW®.
