Hoover Unit Claims Waste in VA Hospitals
The Hoover Commission's report and Medical Services Task Force findings urge major reorganizations to save about 30 million dollars annually. The task force notes potential savings exceed those approved by the commission, which offered no dollar estimate. The commission argues wasteful care at federal expense, with excess provision of hospital services under federal programs.
