Title; Associated Form; and OMB 

Number: Third Party Collection 

Program/Medical Services Account/ 

Other Health Insurance; DD Form 2569; 

OMB Control Number 0720–TBD 

(previously OMB Control Number 0704– 

0323). 

Needs and Uses: The information 

collection requirement is necessary to 

obtain health insurance policy 

information used for coordination of 

health care benefits and billing thirdparty payers. DoD implemented the 

Third Party Collection Program (TPCP) 

in FY87 based on the authority granted 

in 10 U.S.C. 1095 and implemented by 

32 CFR 220 in accordance with the 

Consolidated Omnibus Budget 

Reconciliation Act of 1986 (COBRA) 

(Pub. L. 99–272, section 2001, April 7, 

1986). Under the TPCP, DoD is 

authorized to collect from third-party 

payers the cost of inpatient and 

outpatient services rendered to DoD 

beneficiaries who have other health 

insurance. Military treatment facilities 

are required to make this form available 

to third-party payers upon request. A 

third-party payer may not request any 

other assignment of benefits form from 

the subscriber. 

Affected Public: Business or other for 

profit; Not-for-profit institutions. 

Annual Burden Hours: 146,845. 

Number of Respondents: 2,936,905. 

Responses per Respondent: 1. 

Average Burden per Response: 3 

minutes. 

Frequency: Annually, or on occasion 

(when insurance information changes). 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Summary of Information Collection 

The administration has placed an 

increased emphasis upon recovery of 

health care expenses under the TPCP, as 

authorized by 10 U.S.C. 1095 and 

1097b. Completion of this form, while 

increasing total burden hours, will aid 

in increasing revenue to improve 

services, operating efficiency and 

effectiveness within the Military Health 

System. Funds collected return directly 

to the operation and maintenance 

budget of the MTF where the care was 

delivered and are used to improve the 

quality of healthcare. Often the funds 

allow the continuation of programs or 

purchasing of equipment at the facilities 

for which there would otherwise not be 

funding. This information is collected 

either during the admission and/or 

discharge process for an inpatient stay 

or during the registration process for an 

outpatient visit.
