This book was released on 2017-10-05 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: VA provides health care benefits to children diagnosed with spina bifida-a birth defect that can cause physical and neurological issues-born to Vietnam and certain other veterans. Legislation requires the provision of certain health care benefits-including home care, hospital care, outpatient care, and case management-for spina bifida beneficiaries. VHA administers the Spina Bifida Health Care Program for enrolled beneficiaries by processing and paying claims for covered services from private sector providers. GAO was asked to evaluate VHA's administration of spina bifida health care benefits. In this report, GAO examined for the spina bifida program: (1) the extent to which VHA conducts outreach about available benefits, (2) what is known about health care claims that have been processed, and (3) what, if any, oversight, VHA conducts of the claims process. GAO reviewed the spina bifida program handbook and claims audit reports, analyzed data on submitted, paid, and denied claims from fiscal years 2009 through 2013, and interviewed VHA officials and representatives from key stakeholder organizations.
