Podcast: VA OIG Team Reflects on PRAC Healthcare Subgroup Work
The VA OIG recently collaborated with other inspector general offices as part of the federal government’s response to the ongoing pandemic. Listen in as team members discuss their experiences working with several other federal organizations on a report detailing COVID-19 testing by federal agencies during the early months of the pandemic.
“From February 2020 through August 2020, six federal healthcare programs paid for or administered 10.7 million tests, which represented approximately 13 percent of tests performed in the United States during this time period."
- Dr. Jennifer Baptiste, VA OIG Office of Healthcare Inspections
The report, Federal COVID-19 Testing Report: Data Insights from Six Federal Health Care Programs, is available on the Pandemic Response Accountability Committee (PRAC) website. The PRAC is a committee of the Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency (CIGIE).
