    New error rate highlights risks for Massachusetts SNAP program

    Massachusetts reported a 12.5% error rate for SNAP benefits in fiscal year 2025, exceeding the federal 6% threshold and potentially requiring the state to cover 5-15% of its SNAP costs starting October 1, 2027. The U.S. Department of Agriculture cited 'significant waste' and $10.1 billion in nationwide improper payments, while Massachusetts also addressed a $855,000 fraud scheme in its SUN Bucks program.
