Idea to send:	Topic Government Accountability Content Make government more accountable to the people by requiring all major government agencies and departments develop performance management systems using scorecards that show the progress each agency is making toward achieving performance targets. For example, the Department of Health will create scorecard that sets a specific target for the mental health treatment rate, number child-welfare cases closed, number children without health insurance, or number of Oklahomans receiving proper vaccinations. The scorecard should be posted on the home page of each agency's website so that citizens can follow the progress each day. Such a management system engenders enhanced accountability, efficiency, and easily measurable performance targets and allows government to cut waste and demand progress where necessary.
