TACOMA, Wash. — An Army agency that sets final medical records for disabled soldiers has been ordered to disregard reports from Madigan Army Medical Center doctors under scrutiny last year for their handling of patients with post-traumatic stress disorder.
~ excerpt:
A Madigan ombudsman in late 2011 drew attention to the team after obtaining a PowerPoint presentation that suggested its members were adjusting diagnoses to save the Army money.
A subsequent Army review found the doctors were doing their jobs correctly, but that forensic reviews were not appropriate for widespread use in the Army medical retirement system.
