OALC Freedom of Information Act Requests
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) will accept Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests electronically.
If you have a FOIA request that relates to the VA Office of Procurement, Acquisition, and Logistics (OPAL), please submit your request to VA_OAL_FOIA@va.gov.
If you have a FOIA request that relates to the VA Office of Contruction and Facilities Management (CFM), please submit your request CFM.FOIA@va.gov.
The Department of Veterans Affairs Freedom of Information Offices are decentralized. Our office does not maintain Military Service Records, Veteran’s Medical or Benefit Records. FOIA related requests, as they relate to Veterans Health Administration, Veterans Benefits Records, National Cemetery Administration, Military Service Records, and Other Administration Records may be submitted through the VA’s FOIA website. Please read all applicable sub sections including but not limited to “How to Submit a FOIA Request,” “Find your local VBA regional office,” and “Find your VHA medical facility.”
Questions
Access the VA FOIA Frequently Asked Questions if you need more information.
OALC FOIA Library
VA maintains a collection of documents that are available electronically on the Internet. These public records include VA statements of policy, staff manuals, as well as high-profile records that have been previously requested by another member of the public and is likely to become the subject of another FOIA request. It is likely that the information you seek has already been made available on the VA FOIA reading room.
Historical VA Pharmaceutical Prices
Since July 2015, on its website every two weeks, the VA National Acquisition Center posts and updates its negotiated pharmaceutical prices with vendors. Prior to July 2015, the VA Pharmacy Benefits Management Service posted such on its website.
Historical VA Hearing Aids Procurement Distribution Summaries
Monthly, VA reports sales of hearing aids, remote controls, and wireless devices (adaptors, receivers, and transmitters) processed through the Denver Logistics Center. VA reports sales both by quantity and total dollar value, for each hearing aid manufacturer on contract with VA. There are no records prior to the 2009-2010 report, as the data was not tracked prior to that reporting period.
Medical-Surgical Prime Vendor (MSPV) Contract Records
VA procures contracts for its MSPV program. VA discloses VA Solicitations, Amendments, resultant Contracts, Modifications, and their Attachments relating to the MSPV program.
