Primes¶
- Coverage / Reachability
- Service design and public policy: every entitled beneficiary class has at least one accessible pathway to the benefit; coverage gaps are eligible-but-unreachable populations, a chronic failure of welfare programmes.
This sourceSurveys incomplete take-up of social benefits worldwide — only ~30-80% of eligible populations receive targeted benefits versus ~100% for universal programmes — with administrative barriers and access frictions leaving eligible-but-unreached classes, the chronic coverage gap.

Ko and Moffitt document pervasive incomplete take-up among eligibles, driven by administrative barriers and information gaps, but give no coverage principle or the 30-80% figures.
“take-up rate of less than 100 percent, is the rule rather than the exception”

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
