Chronic Leadership Failures Plague Cardiology Department at Indiana VAMC

Update: 2024-03-28

Description

In the latest episode of Veteran Oversight Now, a VA OIG healthcare inspection hotline director discusses how multiple OIG reports detail chronic leadership failures at the Indianapolis, Indiana VA medical center. This edition also includes highlights of the VA OIG’s work from February 2024.

“It overall affects the care that the patients receive. Some of the care just wasn’t available anymore because they didn’t have the cardiologists available.”

– Trina Rollins, VA Office of Inspector General, Office of Healthcare Inspections, Hotline Director
