A panel of experts discuss the application of civil rights protections to emerging AI technologies, highlighting potential harms, the need for inclusive teams, and the importance of avoiding technology-centric solutions to social problems.
This webinar addressed the near completion of the Medicaid continuous coverage unwinding, highlighting a net decrease of almost 10.6 million enrollees, including over 4 million children, and discussed next steps for state compliance, best practices, and outreach strategies to reconnect eligible individuals who lost coverage.
The Policy2Code Prototyping Challenge explored utilizing generative AI technology to translate U.S. government policies for public benefits into plain language and code, culminating in a Demo Day where twelve teams showcased their projects for feedback and evaluation.
An interactive dashboard that enables users to explore and monitor key metrics of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) Quality Control (QC) system.
Sarah Bargal provides an overview of AI, machine learning, and deep learning, illustrating their potential for both positive and negative applications, including authentication, adversarial attacks, deepfakes, generative models, personalization, and ethical concerns.
This report documents four experiments exploring if AI can be used to expedite the translation of SNAP and Medicaid policies into software code for implementation in public benefits eligibility and enrollment systems under a Rules as Code approach.
This report provides a comprehensive analysis of administrative burdens, offering strategies to reduce unnecessary obstacles in public service delivery, with a focus on improving access to government services for underserved and marginalized populations.
This report poses the question of whether states are prepared to meet the new Medicaid work reporting and renewal mandates introduced by HR 1, given ongoing strain from the post-pandemic “unwinding.”
There are frameworks available that could inform the standardization of communicating rules as code for U.S. public benefits programs. The Airtable communicates the differences between the frameworks and tools. Each entry is tagged with different categories that identify the type of framework or tool it is.
The Better Government Lab at the McCourt School of Public Policy at Georgetown University has developed a new scale for measuring the experience of burden when accessing public benefits. They offer both a three-item scale and a single-item scale, which can be utilized for any public benefit program. The shorter scales provide a less burdensome way to measure by requiring less information from users.
This is the summary version of a report that documents four experiments exploring if AI can be used to expedite the translation of SNAP and Medicaid policies into software code for implementation in public benefits eligibility and enrollment systems under a Rules as Code approach.
