Summary

Summary
The VA Office of Inspector General Office of Healthcare Inspections performed a follow-up review based on a complaint that recommendations from our previous report (Prosthetic and Sensory Aids Service Records Review, Report No. 11-01416-212, July 7, 2011) had not been fully implemented. The original report, completed at the request of Senator Richard Burr, Ranking Member of the Senate Committee on Veterans’ Affairs, made several recommendations to improve the management of the Prosthetics and Sensory Aids program. Due to additional allegations we conducted this second review. The facility response outlines significant steps to strengthen controls and oversight over the Prosthetic and Sensory Aids Service.
