Didn’t think the VA’s problems could get any worse? Well, it just did. Wisconsin veterans who use the Tomah VA Hospital are being notified that they may have been exposed to hepatitis B, hepatitis C, or HIV – all because a VA dentist was reusing his own tools.
The Tomah VA says it’s in the process of notifying 592 veterans that they may be infected with Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, or HIV after they received care from one particular dental provider.
Acting Medical Center Director Victoria Brahm said the dentist was using his own equipment, then cleaning it and reusing it, which violates the VA’s regulations.
The Tomah VA says it uses sterile and disposable equipment.
The VA says he did this for one year, from October 2015 through October 2016.
It came to light when someone filling in for his assistant noticed what was going on and reported it.
And the dentist KNEW this was not allowed.
