On August 5th, the Department of Veterans Affairs, Office of the Inspector General (VA OIG) released a report entitled “Review of Radiology Staffing and Services at the VA Washington D.C. Healthcare System.” The blandly titled report was an indictment of the second Trump administration’s misguided return-to-office (RTO) policy.
