VA FUNDING NOTES

  • For all lab members to have the ability to purchase VUMC core service, each individual lab member must be granted access to the VA billing number.  Contact VUMCcores@vumc.org for assistance.
     
  • Labs using VA funds will need to monitor the total spend against the VA billing number to prevent the funds from being overspent.
    • REPORTING: The PI or Lab Manager can use the reporting module to report on the total spend against a VA billing number.
