Government Contractors: Criteria Needed For Allowable Employee Health Care Costs

Abstract

The government lacks effective internal controls to ensure that only reasonable health care costs are reimbursed. Federal procurement regulations should be revised to specify (1) the criteria to be used in assessing the reasonableness of health care costs (2) the criteria for assessing other elements of compensation, and (3.) the factors contractors can introduce to justify challenged costs and the criteria that will be used to evaluate them.
