Includes bibliographical references. “Veterans Affairs Canada’s (VAC) “Health Care Benefits Program provides drug benefits for eligible veterans, some of whom are considered vulnerable and have complex health needs such as mental health conditions.” In the 2014–2015 fiscal year, the drug component of the Health Care Benefits Program covered drugs for roughly 51,000 veterans at a cost of $80 million dollars. In Spring 2016, the Office of the Auditor General of Canada (OAG) released a performance audit that examined whether VAC managed the drug component of its Health Care Benefits Program to contribute to the health of veterans by providing coverage for drugs based on evidence, by using cost-effective strategies, and by monitoring the utilization of drugs covered. On 9 June 2016, the House of Commons Standing Committee on Public Accounts (the Committee) held a hearing on this audit”--Intro., p. 1-2. gccst Veterans gccst Benefits gccst Prescription drugs gccst Audit Sorenson, Kevin.
