We administratively closed this review on July 25, 2012, because we did not substantiate the allegations and the subject of the allegations no longer worked at the Medical Center. In addition to posting this review on our website, OIG has distributed copies of this review to VA and Veterans Health Administration officials, congressional committees, national veterans service organizations, the Government Accountability Office, and the Office of Management and Budget.
