the overall NPC program it created. The 

NPC Annual Report to Congress is also 

used by top-level VA executives to 

evaluate the program and to recommend 

changes where needed. VHA’s 

Nonprofit Oversight Board and the 

Nonprofit Program Office (NPPO) use 

both the combined NPC Annual Report 

to Congress and the individual NPC 

Annual Report Templates to monitor 

and oversee the NPCs. Trend analyses 

and other financial information are 

analyzed for each NPC and judgments 

made about each NPC’s progress, 

financial viability, stewardship of 

assets, and accomplishments. 

NPC Audit Actions Items Remediation 

Plans, VA Form 10–10073A 

The NPC Audit Action Items 

Remediation Plans information 

collection is used to review the NPCs’ 

remedies for audit deficiencies and 

recommendations. The major objective 

of the information collection is to help 

ensure proper corrective action. If any of 

the remediation plans submitted are 

inadequate, then the NPPO will make 

recommendations for sound, workable 

remedies. 

NPPO Internal Control Questionnaire, 

VA Form 10–10073B 

The NPPO Internal Control 

Questionnaire, or portions of it, will be 

used in conducting reviews, audits, and 

investigations of the NPCs. The major 

objective of the questionnaire is to 

uncover weaknesses and lapses in 

internal controls. The NPPO will then 

make recommendations for improved 

internal controls wherever there are 

weaknesses or lapses. The questionnaire 

also may be used as a voluntary selfassessment by the NPCs. 

NPPO Operations Oversight 

Questionnaire, VA Form 10–10073C 

The NPPO Operations Oversight 

Questionnaire, or portions of it, will be 

used in conducting operational reviews 

of the NPCs. The major objective of the 

questionnaire is to uncover operating 

problems and areas that need 

improvement. The NPPO will then 

make recommendations for operations 

improvements wherever problems or 

opportunities for improvement are 

found. The questionnaire also may be 

used as a voluntary self-assessment by 

the NPCs.
