Systematic Eligibility Management for Welfare Benefit Recipients

Prevention of Fraudulent Claims and Fair Benefit Support

Gijang-gun (Governor Jung Jongbok) recently announced on the 1st that it has implemented an integrated personal information maintenance for welfare benefit recipients to prevent fraudulent welfare payments and ensure the efficient execution of welfare budgets.


This integrated personal information maintenance was conducted from July 8 to July 31, targeting 448 households of welfare benefit recipients and their obligors, including those receiving Basic Livelihood Security (living, medical, housing, and education), Basic Pension, Disability Welfare, and elementary, middle, and high school education expenses.


During the maintenance period, the county utilized the next-generation Social Security Information System (Haengbok-eum) to meticulously review changes in family relationships of recipients based on Supreme Court family relationship registration information and Ministry of the Interior and Safety resident registration data.


In particular, by thoroughly reflecting changes such as the birth or death of household members, marriage, and division or merging of households, the county took measures to ensure that no eligible recipients were omitted from the 'second half regular verification survey' that investigates changes in income and assets.



Jung Jongbok, Governor of Gijang-gun, said, "We will strive to prevent fraudulent claims through systematic qualification management of welfare recipients and ensure that welfare benefits are fairly provided to those who truly need them."
