REPORT BY THE


Comptroller General


OF THE UNITED STATES


Military Hospitals Need

Stronger Guidance On Presidential,

VIP, And Officer Accommodations

The Department of Defense has not carried
out GAO's December 1974 recommenda-
tions that the Secretary of Defense establish
criteria for Presidential and  other VIP
accommodations in military hospitals and
instruct the military departments to discon.
tinue separating officer and enlisted patients.
As a result;

    --A new Presidential suite was con-
    structed in the Washington, D.C., area
    although existing facilities were ade-
    quate.

    --A Presidential suite was being main-
    tained in California without Defense
    headquarters or White House knowl-
    edge.

    --The definition of and accommodations
    provided to VIPs continue to vary
    widely.

    --Some Navy hospitals, including those
    identified in GAO's 1974  report,
    continue to separate officer and
    enlisted patients.

 GAO renewed and strengthened its 1974 rec:
 ommendations in this report.
