Abstract
A system for receiving and processing data includes a data processing and verification component that accepts data from a client in an electronic format and identifies therefrom data elements that can be directly verified. A risk assessment component receives data elements that have not been identified as directly verifiable and assesses a risk that the data elements are incomplete or incorrect. The risk assessment component generates risk assessment data. A decision support component receives the risk assessment data from the risk assessment component and selects appropriate actions for subsequent processing of the client data according to the assessment of risk contained in the risk assessment data.
