2023 government fraud, waste, and abuse survey report

Are prevention efforts keeping pace or losing ground?

This year, the Thomson Reuters “2023 government fraud, waste, and abuse report” is based on a survey of state and local government workers to assess whether they have the tools and resources they need to effectively prevent, detect, and investigate fraud, waste, and abuse (FWA).
