Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request
ACTION:
Notice.
The Department of Defense has submitted to OMB for clearance, the following proposal for collection of information under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35).
DATES:
Consideration will be given to all comments received by May 31, 2012.
Title and OMB Number: Active Duty Dental Program Claim Form; OMB Control Number 0720-TBD.
Type of Request: New.
Number of Respondents: 59,000.
Responses per Respondent: 3.
Annual Responses: 177,000.
Average Burden per Response: 5 minutes.
Annual Burden Hours: 14,750 hours.
Needs and Uses: The information collection requirement is necessary to obtain and record the dental readiness of Service Members using the Active Duty Dental Program and at the same time submit the claim for the dental procedures provided so that claims can be processed and reimbursement made to the provider. Many of these Service Members are not located near a military dental treatment facility and receive their dental care in the private sector. The new form is needed to update the dental readiness of all Service Members so that they can maintain worldwide deployment status and reduces paperwork by combining the dental claim and dental readiness into one form.
Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profit.
Frequency: On occasion.
Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
OMB Desk Officer: Mr. John Kraemer.
Written comments and recommendations on the proposed information collection should be sent to Mr. Kraemer at the Office of Management and Budget, Desk Officer for DoD, Room 10236, New Executive Office Building, Washington, DC 20503.
