Summary
While reviewing the Veterans Health Administration’s (VHA) plans to document receipt and distribution of the COVID-19 vaccine, the VA Office of Inspector General (OIG) determined that VHA facilities did not consistently document the COVID-19 vaccination status of veterans living in VA’s Community Living Centers (CLCs).The OIG determined that VHA could not know at a national level whether the vaccine was offered to some CLC residents, and if so, what their status was.
