RE: Revision to Section 11.000, Computer and E uipment Policies
and Procedures, Weld County Department of Social Services
Operations Manual
Enclosed for Board approval is a revision to Section 11.000, Computer and Equipment Policies
and Procedures, Weld County Department of Social Services Operations Manual. This revision
was reviewed at the Board's Work Session held on January 8, 2007.
The revision expands the types of public assistance applications to be reviewed by the
Department by using the Accurint software, a web-based program that uses public and non-public
information to help prevent client fraud by locating client income, assets and household
composition. The expansion will include those applications being recertified or redetermined for
continued public assistance. Currently our policy covers only new applicants for public
assistance.
If you have any questions, please telephone me at extension 6510.

Added 10/06
Accurint is a web-based software program that allows the Department to access additional public
and non-public information to help prevent client fraud by locating client's income, assets and
household composition.
11.501 Accurint Access
The Department will give access to the following three staff members:
A. Child Support Technician
B. Assistance Payments Lead Investigator or his/her designee
C. Common Support Clerk III
11.502 Usage of Accurint in the Department
Revised 1/07
Accurint will be used by the Department to include, but not limited to, the following:
A. Identify any asset(s) in another state, income, household members(s)that may be living
with the client, drivers license information,judgments, addresses, bankruptcies, deceased
information,etc.
B. Any new application(s), redetermination(s), recertification(s), or reassessment(s) for any
CBMS programs, except for Family Medicaid only, will be screened through this software
by the Common Support Clerk III on a randomly selected basis and scheduled in advance
by day, technician, and appointment time. This information will be given to the eligibility
technician to crosscheck the information put on the application with the information that is
extracted from Accurint. If Accurint has different information than what is on the
application, the technician will ask the client for further verification based on the
information obtained from Accurint without showing them or telling them where they
obtained it from. This may also constitute a referral to investigations.
