How would increased VA Inspector General reporting on disability claim backlogs help identify whether delays stem from staffing, technology, or process inefficiencies?
- 02
What specific metrics or timelines should the Inspector General use to measure backlog progress, and how would that accountability affect veterans' wait times?
- 03
Could mandatory reporting requirements alone reduce claim processing delays, or would the bill need to pair oversight with additional funding or staffing authority?
