The Department of Veterans Affairs Office of the Inspector General has begun reviewing the Iowa City VA facility following concerns over its treatment of patients.
Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, requested the review in a letter sent to Inspector General George Opfer on March 7. The Iowa City Veterans Association received a copy of that letter from an anonymous source.
Iowa City VA spokeswomen Valerie Buckingham said the facility is waiting on further guidance from the Office of the Inspector General.
