In this latest episode of Veteran Oversight Now, we’re revisiting a highly downloaded episode from February 2024—Unpaid Postage Bill Delays Critical Cancer Screenings.   Hear from a VA OIG healthcare inspection hotline director, who discusses delays in the receipt of patients’ colorectal cancer screening tests due to an unpaid postage bill by the Phoenix VA Health Care System in Arizona. This edition also includes highlights of the VA OIG’s work from September 2024.   “The VISN actually led a stand-down at the facility to retrain all of the laboratory staff about the test, about the assessing of the test and processing it. And then they also passed all of that information to all of the other facilities within VISN 22. So, it wasn’t just Phoenix, you know, they made sure all of the facilities in VISN 22 had the same information and the same knowledge. So, to follow that up, they’re doing weekly audits and checking to make sure that the logging process is being done correctly. And so far, the reported compliance has been 100 percent.”   – Trina Rollins, VA Office of Inspector General, Office of Healthcare Inspections, Hotline Director
