TAMPA – One patient died at James A. Haley VA Medical Center because of an error during surgery and some surgeries were canceled because doctors didn’t show up, according to a report issued Thursday.
The findings also said the hospital’s operating room was closed twice because of fly infestations and that staff responded by installing “suspended electric flying insect traps.’’
In addition, the 31-page report by the Inspector General of the Department of Veterans Affairs raised questions about the legality of a contract for surgical services between the University of South Florida and Haley, the nation’s busiest VA hospital.
The VA OIG report is also at the Watchdog site.
