Recommendation Contents
OIG recommends that the Office of Medical Services (MED) consult with the Office of Legal Advisor and the Office of Resource Management as appropriate to reconcile guidance in the Foreign Affairs Manual (FAM) (including 4 FAM 445, 4 FAM 492, 4 FAM 493, 16 FAM 524, and 4 FAM 530) with information in MED standard operating procedures and MED intranet guidance regarding overseas hospitalizations and reimbursements to eliminate contradictions and ambiguity.
