In these difficult economic times, many government agencies are striving to improve the quality and efficiency of citizen service delivery. The State of Utah has taken an innovative approach to transforming the way services are accessed and delivered with the electronic Resource & Eligibility Product (eREP).
eREP is an automated, enterprise solution that integrates eligibility and benefit calculations for more than 60 social service programs. With eREP, state caseworkers are more productive, citizens can access more services themselves online and clients are experiencing more positive outcomes.
In addition to saving money, eREP provides better service for citizens by connecting multiple social service agencies and programs, online access to knowledge and available services and reduced time-to-benefits. Using the eREP system, program eligibility information is more accurate and consistent leading to increased case worker productivity and effectiveness, allowing them to focus on the client, ensuring a more positive outcome.
