VA lost its radiology staff — and radiology test results went with them. Patients waited weeks for reads that should have taken days. A VA OIG report found the agency kept referring veterans to community care even after providers stopped responding. #VeteransAffairs #VAHealth #Radiology…
A VA employee collected $354,814 in disability benefits while working full-time for 8 years. The VA OIG found the fraud — then couldn't tell Congress whether the case was ever prosecuted because it had no system for tracking outcomes. #VeteransFraud #VeteransAffairs #GovernmentAccountability…
VA spends $864 million a year on prosthetics through purchase cards. Only 19 oversight officials are watching it — and a VA OIG audit found the controls are nowhere near sufficient to catch fraud or misuse at that scale. #VeteransAffairs #VA #ProstheticsFraud #GovernmentAccountability…
The VA Amarillo healthcare system's furnace broke in winter. OIG had previously recommended fixing it. The recommendation was marked closed. The furnace was still broken. A look at how VA closes findings without solving problems. #VeteransAffairs #VA #GovernmentAccountability #VeteransHealth…
A VA hospital failed fire safety inspections repeatedly — same findings, same deficiencies, year after year. The VA OIG documented the pattern. The corrective actions kept getting marked complete without the problems actually being fixed. #VeteransAffairs #VAHealth #PatientSafety…
The VA broke ground on a hospital based on a business case document that, when auditors looked for it, did not exist. $130 million into construction. #VeteransAffairs #VA #GovernmentAccountability #FederalSpending #VeteransHealth
VA policy requires specialty care appointments within 3 days. A VA OIG review found mental health patients waited an average of 10 days. The wait-time clock was also being started in a way that made performance look better than it was. #VA #VeteransMentalHealth #VeteransAffairs…
"State law may say one thing. Federal law may say another. VA policy occupies another layer entirely. Employment rules, transportation regulations and firearms law can add still more complexity."
