Combined Assessment Program Review of the Durham VA Medical Center, Durham, North Carolina

摘要

The review covered facility operations for FY 2010 and FY 2011 through March 7, 2011, and was done in accordance with OIG SOPs for CAP reviews. We also followed up on selected recommendations from our prior CAP review of the facility (Combined Assessment Program Review of the VA Medical Center, Durham, North Carolina, Report No. 07-03443-46, December 19, 2007). The facility provided sufficient proof that it had corrected all findings. (See Appendix B for further details.) During this review, we also presented crime awareness briefings for 595 employees. These briefings covered procedures for reporting suspected criminal activity to the OIG and included case-specific examples illustrating procurement fraud, conflicts of interest, and bribery. In this report, we make recommendations for improvement. Recommendations pertain to issues that are significant enough to be monitored by the OIG until corrective actions are implemented.
