It's a Start. One of the National Performance Review's
recommendations to improve customer service:
"We need not serve customers who are no longer alive."
(Recommendation triggered by the fact that some agencies
continue to send checks to citizens after they are
deceased.) "Congress should amend the Social Security Act
to allow SSA [Social Security Administration] to share death
information with other programs."
