The "Compendium of Unimplemented Office of Inspector General
Recommendations" combines the formerly published "Red Book"
(unimplemented monetary recommendations) and the "Orange Book"
(unimplemented nonmonetary recommendations) into one publication. The
"Red Book" focused on significant Office of Inspector General (OIG)
cost-saving recommendations that had not been fully implemented. The
"Orange Book" focused on unimplemented recommendations to improve HHS
programs. Full implementation of the recommendations in this compendium
could achieve substantial savings and increase the effectiveness of the
Department's programs.
Each narrative contains a background summary, findings,
recommendation(s), status, report
number(s), and report issue date(s). In the case of monetary
recommendations, there is also an estimate of the savings that may be
achieved by implementing the recommendations. The estimated value of
each monetary recommendation is based on the specifics of each review
and not extrapolated beyond the scope of the original review. The actual
savings to be achieved depends on the specific legislative, regulatory,
or administrative actions. However, the estimates provide a general
indication of the magnitude of savings possible.
