Fired consultant submits bill
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — West Virginia University officials and a consulting firm have a $350,800 difference of opinion.
R&V Associates said it is owed that sum for ‘‘services rendered’’ in July and August and for helping recruit a cardiovascular surgeon. The Sunday Gazette-Mail cited an invoice obtained under the state’s Freedom of Information Act.
West Virginia’s largest medical center fired the Pittsburgh consulting firm in June. It said R&V’s report about WVU’s health sciences division and hospitals was riddled with errors.
R&V Associates has stood by its report.
