Audit of Veterans Health Administration Open Market Medical Equipment and Supply Purshases.

摘要

The OIG conducted this audit to evaluate open market purchases made from FSS 65 IIA medical equipment and supply vendors. The objectives of the audit were to determine if VHA medical facilities purchased items on the open market when identical or like items were available for purchase through an existing FSS at a lower price. We were also to assess the effectiveness of controls over VHA open market procurements.
