Alabama Congresswoman Seeks VA Records

U.S. Rep. Martha Roby called it "obviously egregious behavior," and she asked how anyone could think that falsifying more than 1,200 pulmonary records does not endanger patients.

U.S. Rep. Martha Roby called it "obviously egregious behavior," and she asked how anyone could think that falsifying more than 1,200 pulmonary records does not endanger patients.

An Alabama congresswoman is seeking extensive records from the Veterans Administration about the health care of veterans in central Alabama.

Republican Rep. Martha Roby of Montgomery said Wednesday that she wrote to the acting secretary of veterans affairs seeking records of the Central Alabama Veterans Health Care System. Roby says she wants the records because of complaints she has received and because of government investigations that have revealed problems with long waits and medical records altered.

Roby's request includes records of employee terminations, employee bonuses, physician lists, medical treatment data, and financial statements.

Roby is a member of the House appropriations subcommittee involved with veterans' issues.
