Final Report on the Fiscal Year 1989 Evaluation of the Alternate Use of CHAMPUS Funds at the Dwight David Eisenhower Army Medical Center, Fort Gordon, Georgia
Abstract
This is our final report on the audit of the FY 1989 Evaluation of the Alternate Use of CHAMPUS Funds at the Dwight David Eisenhower Army Medical Center (the Center), Fort Gordon, Georgia. The overall objective of the audit was to evaluate whether the coronary care medical test project initiated by the Center would, if implemented, reduce costs of the Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Uniformed Services (CHAMPUS). We also evaluated applicable internal controls established to identify, document, and monitor costs of the proposed medical project. The audit was made from September 1989 to April 1990 at the direction of Congress. We visited the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs), the Comptroller of the Army, and the Army Health Services Command to monitor the status of the test project. The audit covered the project's operations from January through September 1989. A representative from the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) assisted the DoD, IG audit team in monitoring the coronary care medical test project and in performing this audit.
