Financial Management: Clarification of GAO Response to Allegations Regarding DFOH

Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO provided information on constituents' concerns that certain issues were not addressed in GAO's September 1996 letter on allegations of fiscal mismanagement by the Division of Federal and Occupational Health (DFOH). The letter addressed allegations that during fiscal years 1992 and 1993: (1) DFOH violated the Economy Act by including regional office rent allocations from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) in the costs reimbursed by other federal agencies under interagency agreements; and (2) HRSA augmented its appropriation by allocating these rent costs to DFOH.
