Colo. VA employees face discipline for manipulating data

The VA has proposed unspecified action against Rocky Mountain Network Director Ralph Gigliotti and Cheyenne VA Medical Center Director Cynthia McCormack. The department did not specify which other employees are facing discipline.

Acting VA Secretary Sloan Gibson said Tuesday the actions of employees who have been found to have manipulated data will not be tolerated.

Investigators from the VA's medical branch say workers were told to make their records show that veterans got appointments within 14 days of the day requested, whether or not it was true.
