    Authority: Public Law 104-13; 44 U.S.C. 3501-3521.
    Title: Veteran Reimbursement Claim Form (VA Form 10-320).
    OMB Control Number: 2900-NEW.
    Type of Review: New collection.
    Abstract: Veterans may claim reimbursement for certain medical 
costs, as authorized by 38 U.S.C. 1728. The new Veteran Reimbursement 
Claim Form, VA Form 10-320, will be utilized by Veterans requesting 
reimbursement for various out-of-pocket expenses that occurred as a 
result of non-VA medical services that may be eligible for payment 
under 38 CFR 17.4025 (Veterans Community Care Program), 38 CFR 17.120 
(Unauthorized), 38 CFR 17.1002 (Millennium Bill), and 38 CFR 17.1200--
17.1230 (COMPACT Act). In order for VA to process and repay these 
expenses, Veterans must submit necessary information to support their 
request and justify reimbursement.
    VA Form 10-320 will be used to collect information from Veterans 
seeking reimbursement for certain medical expenses. This claim form 
will be used to support payment of certain unauthorized non-VA medical 
services. Veterans may use this form to submit claims for reimbursement 
for a variety of services, such as pharmacy costs, training classes, 
emergent suicide care, and other medical expenses.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
