“Sharon Helman, the director of the Phoenix Veterans Affairs Health Care System, ‘got an $8,500 bonus last month while there was an open [inspector general] investigation into Phoenix,’ Chairman Miller told CNN’s Jake Tapper. It had been previously reported that Helman receivedmore than $9,000 in bonus pay in 2013 on top of her annual salary of $169,900. The VA office of inspector general began investigating the Phoenix VA for wrongdoing in December 2013, months before Helman received the additional $8,500 bonus. Chairman Jeff Miller said that VA officials told him that the Helman’s new bonus was the result of ‘an administrative error’ made by a ‘low-level person’ in the department.”
