Sec. 809.270  Qualified products for convenience/labor saving foods.

    (a) Each VA medical district's Dietetic Service representative is 
delegated authority to establish a common Qualified Products List for 
convenience/labor-saving foods for the use of medical centers within 
his/her respective district. The medical district Dietetic Service 
representative will notify the Director, Dietetic Service, VA Central 
Office, of the establishment of each Qualified Products List and 
amendments to each established list.
    (b) Each medical center is authorized to use its district Qualified 
Products List. Each medical center may test food of its own choice, but 
will submit test results to the district Dietetic Service 
representative. The Dietetic Service representative will coordinate and 
consolidate the test results and recommendations of individual medical 
centers with other medical centers within the district in order to avoid 
unnecessary duplication.
    (c) The approved medical district Qualified Products List will be 
furnished each Supply office within the district. The Supply Services 
will have access to complete and accurate records of established 
Qualified Products Lists and all test results. These records will be 
made available to the Office of Acquisition and Materiel Management, VA 
Central Office, upon request.
