520 |aHealthcare professional service contractors are individuals with “significant training, qualifications and expertise in a professional field.” With the support of Public Works and Government Services Canada, these contractors are used to obtain expert knowledge and to complement the existing workforce. At Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC), these healthcare professional service contractors review or conduct assessments of Veteran’s health needs for services or benefits as well as provide consultation with VAC staff. During the 2012/13 fiscal year, there were 55 healthcare professional service contracts for Occupational Therapists, Nurses, Doctors and a Dentist, excluding those at Ste. Anne’s Hospital. The purpose of the audit was to provide assurance that the departmental activities relating to healthcare professional service contracts were conducted in compliance with VAC procedures, and TB policies and regulations. Overall governance as well as the payment process were also assessed. Fieldwork was conducted from April to July 2013.
